Why We're So Tired


The population of this country is 237 million. 104 million are retired. That leaves 133 million to do the work.


There are 85 million in school, which leaves 48 million to do the work. Of this there are 29 million employed by the Federal Government. That leaves 19 million to do the work.


Four million are in the Armed Forces, which leaves 15 million to do the work.


Take from that the 14,800,000 who work for State and Local Governments and we are left with 200,000 to do the work.


There are 188,000 ill and in hospitals, so we now have 12,000 to do the work.


Now there are 11,998 people in prisons so there are just two people left to do the work, you and me.
