Brain transplant
A mid-level executive was so frustrated at being passed over for promotion year after year, that, in frustration, he went to a
brain-transplant center in the hope of raising his I.Q. 20 points.
After a battery of physical and psychological tests, he was told by the center's director that he was an acceptable candidate.
"That's great!" the executive said. "But I understand that this procedure can be really expensive."
"Yes, sir, it can," the director replied. "An ounce of accountant's brain for example, costs one thousand dollars; an ounce of an economist's brain costs two thousand; an ounce of a corporate president's is forty-five thousand. An ounce of a Liberal's brain is
seventy-five thousand dollars."
"Seventy-five thousand dollars for an ounce of a Liberal's brain?? Why on earth is that?"
"Do you have any idea," the director asked, "how many Liberals we would have to kill?"

In this day and age it is easier to stay stupid than it is to stay ignorant. I have had the misfortune to have encountered many informed idiots
