Taro,

re:Such complicated math comes later.

Statistics are constantly used to manipulate the unwashed masses. The way the numbers are expressed on the web page really are a bit misleading - but nearly everyone knows the total 'things' in a count based percentage is 100% - unless you went to business school and believe people should give 110% effort.

I suppose I could make the case that by excluding illegal aliens from the work force numbers we may actually have a workforce of 110%. <g>
