Hmmmmm. Looks like we're about "normal" WRT to life cushiness, hours we labor, and income here at LBO -- at least among the very small percentage who took the poll (much lower numbers this time, since it was an income question. In that, LBOers are just as 'shy' as the rest of the U.S. -- which is really not a good thing for labor in general, is it?

Anyway, I didn't analyze the per cap income poll since it isn't a very helpful question. Per cap info in the LBO poll doesn't make much sense when compared to national numbers.

Cushy Life Poll:

yes 37% 14

no 45% 17

Life o' Riley 8% 3

I have a tushy life. 8% 3

On average, how many hours do you work each week.

Up to 40 hrs 47% 18

More than 40 hrs 54% 21

What is _your_ income?

< $10,000 24% 9 $10,001 - $15,000 11% 4 $15,001 - $25,000 8% 3 $25,001 - $35,000 8% 3 $35,001 - $45,000 5% 2 $45,001 - $55,000 8% 3 $55,001 - $65,000 8% 3 $65,001 - $75,000 8% 3 $75,001 - $85,000 8% 3

> $85,000 13% 5
