The United States needs a new table...
Edited on Fri Jul-08-11 11:28 AM by Ozymanithrax
The table was so small that it could not hold George W. Bush.

It is so big that Medicare, Social Security, and the millions of Americans who use those programs are lost on it.

It is too small to contain tax increases during a recession.

The problem is not elected Representatives who have ceased representing the people who elected them.

It is that fucking table.

It keeps changing sizes.

Get rid of it.

1. Converting to the Metric System would solve all of that
A meter is longer than a yard.

A kilogram is way more than a pound.

A kilometer is longer than a rod.

A metric tonne is more than a ton.

2. An accurate, measured answer...
But the solution is too simple.
