Why Politicians are Richer Than Professors

Postulate 1: knowledge is power
Postulate 2: time is money

Further, everyone who has graduated high school knows that
work : time = power (1)

Taking into account the two postulates, we can re-arrange equation (1), as follows:
work : money = knowledge (2)

Solving for money, we'll get:
work : knowledge = money (3)

Thus, as knowledge approaches zero, money approaches infinity, regardless of the work done.

Conclusion:
The less you know, the more money you make, as long as you talk much, like those all most politicians. However, since talk is cheap, supply exceeds demand.
