Toward the end of every year, it has become a Western tradition to initiate the proceedings of a “round up” or “best of” of the people, events, and products of the year and attempt to crown a number of individuals with awards for the most accomplished, best dressed, most influential, or most creative of that year. The world of politics and government is no different. Since Wall Street and the Corporate world essentially function as government as well, it is natural that anyone in banking, finance, or the business of exploitation and the military industrial complex be eligble for recognition as well.

However, while politicians, government officials, corporate overlords, and financiers are awash with awards and backslapping trophies, there was still no official award provided to them at the end of the year for their life’s accomplishments and those made over the past 12 months. We decided in 2015, it was time to change this.

Please note: We apologize for being so late in announcing our winner for 2016. Last year contained a number of events that nearly resulted in the complete destruction of the United States and our staff was focused on survival and neurosis for most of the year. We promise to be more prompt in the future.

A Little About The Award For Reverse Excellence

In our attempt to devise the perfect, comprehensive award, we asked ourselves what such an award would look like? We already have the Nobel Peace Prize, a perfect Orwellian award whose name says “peace” but is generally awarded to mass murderers, warmongers, and proponents of genocidal austerity. Unfortunately, we find the Nobel Prize is no longer able to provide us with the pride and confidence in the world’s leaders who are responsible for the killing of innocent people and the destruction of their livelihoods in the way that we desire. Unable to understand the concept of doublethink, the general public is confused by the use of the word “peace” in the title of the prize and thus they believe that the “peace” prize is actually a prize for peace. For that reason, they often see the recipients as weak and ineffectual despite their accomplishments.

Although not officially announcing his bid for President as of yet, all signs point toward a Scott Walker run in 2016. But, while the mainstream media, particularly the “conservative” outlets has been promoting Walker as one of the up and coming rock stars of the Presidential race and the “liberal” outfits have been criticizing him in all the typical areas, there are plenty of reasons to stay far away from Scott Walker and why this man, like Hilary Clinton, should never be president.

For instance, fresh on the heels of the passage of his “right to work” legislation in Wisconsin, Walker and his fascist allies in the Wisconsin State House is now launching yet another assault on workers’ rights and the economic rights of the American people. This time, the guarantee provided by Wisconsin statute that workers receive 24 hours rest for every 7 days they work finds itself under attack from the Walker machine.

The bill, proposed by Republican state Representatives Mark Born and Van Wanggaard, would create an exemption for workers to “voluntarily opt out” of the rest day and work more than seven consecutive days. While this bill is being presented as “workers’ choice,” the problem is that this exemption will open the door for employers to coerce employees into opting out of the rest day in favor of longer hours.

Obviously, the result of repealing this legislation opens the doorway to a situation in which workers can be forced to work indefinitely without a day off.
