u.n. survey
A worldwide survey was conducted by the U.N. last month. The only question asked was:-
"Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?"
The survey was not a success.
In Africa they didn`t know what `food` meant.
In Eastern Europe they didn`t know what `honest` meant.
In Western Europe they didn`t know what `shortage` meant.
In China they didn`t know what `opinion` meant.
In the Middle East they didn`t know what `solution` meant.
In South America they didn`t know what `please` meant.
And in the U.S.A. they didn`t know what `the rest of the world` meant.

Sadly that was pretty acurate, and funny ... But what did the Aussies say?

Why isn’t that ever an issue of politics? Because you don’t live in a democracy. You live in a plutocracy. Money rules.
