With estimates varying between 3 million and 23 million, it is obvious that our beaurocrats overseeing the issue have no idea of the extent or otherwise of the problem. They should all be fired and replaced by people who could address the situation.

And people get paid for this research. As a joke we would sneak up on a friend who was sleeping. We would place one of his fingers into a glass of water. 2 glasses were then used, 1 full of water and the other initially empty Stage next was to pour water from the full glass to the other...
