Why I Am So Tired

Aug 24, 2008 08:13

This is dedicated to all the tired folks on my Flist. (and this is not my original work)

The population of this country is 273 million.
140 million are retired.
That leaves 133 million to do the work.

There are 85 million in school,
that leave 48 million to do the work.

Of this, there are 29 million employed by the federal government,
leaving 19 million to do the work.

2.8 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing the Taliban.
Which leaves 16.2 million to do the work.

Take from the total the 14.8 million people who work for state and city governments.
And that leave 1.4 million to do the work.

At any give time, there are 188,000 people in hospitals,
leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.

Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons.

That leaves just TWO people to do the work.  You and me.  And there you are sitting at your computer reading LJ (email)

fun stuff
