I missed three:
1. Do you happen to know if the national unemployment rate is currently closer to: They say closer to 10%. I and many other responsible people believe it is really closer to 15%. You have to factor in those that quit looking, self employed people who close the biz and are looking for work but don’t count in any government survey, and CPA’s working at Burger King.
2. Is health care spending per person in the U.S. higher, lower, or about the same as in most major European nations?
I said we were lower, but what do I know? They say higher and that is probably right.
3. About how many U.S. military personnel are currently in Afghanistan: I said 150k... They say 70k.. On that one I guessed.
I missed the same ones you did!
