Trapped Miners Receive a Complimentary Blanket

Read here>>>>Chilean president: Looking forward to imminent mine rescue

In case you haven't heard, there are 33 miners who have been trapped in a Chilean mine for over two months.

Nonetheless, they are supposed to be rescued sometime today or tomorrow. Yeah!

So what do they get for being trapped in a small, dark hole for more than 60 days? A complimentary embroidered blanket of course!

According to the president of Chile, each miner will be given a blanket embroidered with their names. "They're going to be able to keep it for their homes," he said.

Wow, how nice! I bet those miners can't wait to get their blankets.

First of all, what PR person thought of this? I'm not even going to explain why this is a bad idea. Second of all, it better be a blanket made out of benjamins.
