15. DU is tying up all the boobs who would otherwise
be getting in the way of their co-workers getting stuff done, so it's actually helping the economy.

After working in various fields I truly believe that a good fifth of the workforce should be paid to stay home.

12. No. We're probably helping the beer and Haagen-Dasz segments of the economy.
