We in trouble; you sit on yer ass

We are in trouble...

The population of this country is 300 million.

  • 160 million are retired.

  • That leaves 140 million to do the work.

  • There are 85 million in school.

  • Which leaves 55 million to do the work.

  • Of this there are 35 million employed by the federal government.

  • Leaving 20 million to do the work.

  • 2.8 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing Osama Bin-Laden.
  • Which leaves 17.2 million to do the work.

  • Take from that total the 15.8 million people who work for state and city Governments. And that leaves 1.4 million to do the work.

  • At any given 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 on your ass, at your computer, reading jokes.



    Nice.




    Real nice.

    I'm retired but when my Soc. Sec. runs dry I think I'll apply for a job at Domestic Terrorists Inc. or take that correspondence course on flint knapping. I think it will make a comeback. I'm already planning on specializing on hippy skinners.

    My advice to old farts who have reached the end of their money: rob a bank. Just don't kill anyone. Then take an all-expenses paid holiday at Club Fed for the rest of your life.

    Just don't rob MY bank when I'm in there, or you might get shot.
