News Flash: Croc Blast

Someone just blew up the largest crocodile den in the Philippines. Poor crocodiles. :(

Hopefully this time, it's not some pile of shit causing the explosion. Either ways, it was a pretty good target.

We're saving around P65,000,000 for each dead crocodile each year. Taking into account the P500,000 "cash gifts", that's enough to feed hundreds of starving families in the country for a year.

Let's to some math...

Current minimum wage in NCR for non-agriculture industry is P362 per day which translates to roughly P7240 per month or P86880 per year. Assuming it's enough to feed a family for a year, that means P65,500,000 can feed around 754 families per year.

Therefore, each dead crocodile can "theoretically" help 754 families. So the more dead crocodiles, the better. :D

But still, the end does not justify the means. Taking away lives is still not right regardless of whatever good purpose it will mean. I'm just being sarcastic. :)

P.S.
You just can't get enough of this country...
And yes, lightning do strike at the same place twice and sometimes even more...
