Two facts in one post

It's late and we're tired, so these are both in one post tonight.


Elliot: 1 in 7 Americans don't take their prescriptions.

Shelby: The average American CEO makes 475 times the workers' salaries. Britain has the next highest CEO pay, with 22 times their workers' salaries. A little ridiculous? I think so. (I have a list of about 5 of these, but my computer isn't on, so I'll get it later).

***Update!*** The average CEO's salary in the US is 475 times greater than the average worker's salary. In Japan, it is 11 times greater; France, 15; Canada, 20; South Africa, 21; Britain, 22.
