Q. Why do all the really successful, accomplished, talented people leave Sweden?
A. Can you say socialism? I knew you could.
Q. Why don't many of the world's great doctors live in Canada.
A. Can you say socialized medicine? I knew you could.
Q. Why should I work harder than the next guy if I only get as much as he does?
A. I shouldn't.
Q. What would I do if I didn't have bills to pay?
A. I wouldn't work.
Q. Why should I listen to political lectures from twenty-somethings (or
thirty-somethings for that matter)?
A. I shouldn't (but sometimes I need a good laugh ;-)
