Politics 101
Thought you all might enjoy this as much as I did!
A little boy goes to his dad and asks, "What is this I hear about politics?"
Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain politics this way: I'm the
breadwinner of the family, so let's think of me as Capitalism. Your
Mom, she's the administrator of the money, so we'll call her the
Government. We're here to take care of your needs, so we'll call you
the People."
"The nanny, we'll consider her the Working Class. And your baby
brother, we'll call him the Future. Now, think about it that way and
see if it makes sense."
So the the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad has
said.
Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to
check on him. He finds that the baby has severely crapped his diaper.
So the little boy goes to his parents' room and finds his mother sound
asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room.
Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father
in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed.
The next morning, the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I
understand the concept of politics now."
Dad says, "Good, son, tell me in your own words what you think
politics is all about."
The little boy replies, "Well, while Capitalism is screwing the
Working Class, the Government is sound asleep, the People are being
ignored, and the Future is in deep sh*t."
