Interesting Statistics

 

In the United States, 47% of the voting public receive tax dollars rather than pay them. Considering that, here are some other interesting stats:

• More than 90% of households have a microwave oven
• 88% have a television set with 68% having more than one set
• 87% subscribe to cable or satellite TV
• 77% own a personal computer
• 72% have a flat-screen TV
• 68% have broadband internet service

If you have a basic mathematical education, you can readily see that at least some of the people who claim they can't survive without government handouts somehow manage to afford microwaves, high-tech TV's, computers, cable, and internet service.

 

Kind of makes me nauseated.
