Sounds like you're not afraid to engage in verbal battles with the enemy also. Here's one I pulled on my VFW
buddies some time back, after 1 mentioned our high standard of living, I asked who's # 2 & 3, out came the
smart phones followed by sad faces and then a discussion why as a nation we're so low. Got to give my
thoughts on wages & progressive taxes. Word of caution.......never say we don't have the highest standard of
living in the world, you'll be greeted with their trusty "FAKE NEWS" moniker. But asking who else is in the top
5 will get them to help you find the answer.

Let me know if this works out for you and how you worded the question that made you some money off of it.
