I'm tired. For a couple years, I've been blaming it on iron
poor blood, lack of vitamins, dieting and a dozen other
maladies. But now I found out it ain't that. I'm tired
because I'm overworked.

The population of this country (the USA) is 237 million.
104 million are retired. That leaves 133 million to do the
work. There are 85 million in school, which leave 48
million to do the work. Of this there are 29 million
employed by the federal government.

This leaves 19 million to do the work. Four million are in
the Armed Forces, which leaves 15 million to do the
work.

Take from the total the 14,800,000 people who work for
State and City Government and that leaves 200,000 to
do the work.

There are 188,000 in hospitals, so that leaves 12,000 to
do the work. Now, there are 11,998 people in Prisons.
That leaves just two people to do the work. You and me.

Boy Oh Boy . . . And you're sitting there reading this. No
wonder I'm tired, I'm the only one working.
