If this is only in the US, I don't even want to know the world statistics, since they are bound to be much worse.

I never would have thought that inheriting Mars candy would make someone so rich.....
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Are you kidding?  Just about every single mainstream candy in the US is made by Mars.  And with a population as fat as ours, its no wonder that the middle and lower class people cant keep their piggly little snouts shut.  More money is going to the rich, fewer people are getting rich, and the rich are spending less.

Don't you just love capitalism?
