    Last month, a world-wide survey was conducted by the UN. The only question asked was... :

    "Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?"

    The survey was a huge failure because...:

    In Africa they didn't know what " food " means.

    In Eastern Europe they didn't know what " honest " means.

    In Western Europe they didn't know what " shortage " means.

    In China they didn't know what " opinion " means.

    In the Middle East they didn't know what " solution" means.

    In South America they didn't know what " please " means.

    In the USA they didn't know what " the rest of the world " means
