Stats

A pal emails me the following:

"Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics?

29 have been accused of spouse abuse

7 have been arrested for fraud

19 have been accused of writing bad cheques

117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses

3 have done time for assault

71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit

14 have been arrested on drug-related charges

8 have been arrested for shoplifting

21 are currently defendants in lawsuits

84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year

Can you guess the organization?

It's the 535 members of our own jolly old Houses of Parliament - the same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line."
