This is a salesman--- Boudreaux, the smoothest talking Cajun in the
Louisiana National Guard, got called up to active duty. His
first assignment was in a military induction center, and
because he was a good talker they assigned him the duty of
advising new recruits about government benefits, especially
the GI insurance to which they were entitled.
The officer in charge soon noticed that Boudreaux was
getting a 99% sign-up rate for the more expensive
supplemental form of GI insurance. This was remarkable
because it cost these low-income recruits $30 per month for
the higher coverage, compared to what the government was
already providing at no charge.
The officer decided he'd sit in the back of the room at
the next briefing and observe Boudreaux's sales pitch.
Boudreaux stood up before the latest group of inductees and
said, "If you has da normal GI insurance and you goes
to Afghanistan and gets youself killed, da governmen'
pays you benefishery $20,000. If you takes out da supplemental insurans, which cost you only tirty dollars a
munt, den da governmen gots to pay you benefishery $400,000!"
"Now," Boudreaux concluded, "Which folks do you tink dey gonna send to Afghanistan
first?"
