What I want to know is what the world would be like if all the people who don’t collect stamps ran it. Those a-stamp-collectors surely have a lot in common. For example:

1. They don’t collect stamps
2. Uh, they breathe, eat, reproduce?
3. …
4. Profit!

Whoa, lost track of my internet memes there. Sorry.
