Last month, the UN conducted a global survey:

"Please give us your honest opinion about a solution to the Food Shortages in the Rest of the World."

​

The poll turned out, not unexpectedly, to be a huge flop.

Why?

​

In Africa, participants didn't know what 'food' was.

Russia didn't know what 'honest' meant.

Western Europe did not know the word 'Shortage '.

The Chinese did not know what 'opinion' was.

The Middle East asked what 'solution' meant.

South America did not know the meaning of 'please'.

In North Korea they ate the survey sheet.

Switzerland didn't want to give anything for free.

And in the USA, no one knew what 'the rest of the world' was.
