IT HIT ME LIKE A TON OF BRICKS!!!!!

I've  Just Realized Something:

  My dog sleeps about 20 hours a day.
  He has his food prepared for him.
  His meals are provided at no cost to him.
  He visits the Dr. once a year for his checkup and again during the  year, if any medical needs     arise.
  For this he pays nothing, and nothing is required of  him.
  He lives in a nice neighbourhood in a house that is much larger than he needs, but he is not required to do any upkeep.
  If he makes a mess, someone else cleans it up.
  He has his choice of luxurious places to sleep.
  He receives these accommodations absolutely free.
  He is living like a king and has absolutely no expenses whatsoever.
  All of his costs are picked up by others who have to work to earn a living.
  I was just thinking about all this, and suddenly it hit me like a ton of bricks ~
 

 My dog is a  Canadian  Senator!
