Which are there more of in America... toilets or asses?
Could everyone in the country sit down on a toilet at the same time? I'm guessing that there are more asses than toilets. If you figure that each house probably has at least one more ass than toilet, you'd have to find an extra toilet for each household. I don't think the combination of toilets found at work, parks, stadiums, fast-food joints, summer homes, etc. makes up for all the extra people. Though I think it may be close.
Worldwide, I think the asses got the toilets beat. I wonder if there are any statistics on this one.
Say there are X dollars in the whole wide world. Does that number increase, decrease, or stay the same over time? If it increases, where does the value come from? If it decreases, where does the value go?
I don't think the value could decrease, except for people losing physical money or bank accounts somehow being totally wiped out.
I keep on trying to imagine a tiny town that can provide everything for itself. Nothing in and nothing out. It seems to me that the wealth of the town as a whole would have to stay the same, but the distribution would probably change. More wealth could not be created.
Anyone know the answer to this one?
