That is soooo not written by George Carlin. In fact. . . realtime edit: s-words beat me to it. This reminds me of the supposed Kurt Vonnegut graduation speech. But at least in that case, Vonnegut liked the writing in question. In this case, I think George Carlin would be downright embarrassed.

Or this.... POLITICAL PHILOSOPHIES EXPLAINED IN SIMPLE TWO-COW TERMS: SOCIALISM You have two cows. You keep one and give one to your neighbor.... COMMUNISM You have two cows, the government takes them both and provides you with the milk... FASCISM You have two cows, the government takes them and sells you the milk... BUREAUCRACY You have two cows. The government takes them both, shoots one, milks the other, pays you for the milk and then pours it down the drain... CAPITALISM You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull... CORPORATE You have two cows. You sell one, force the other to produce the milk of four cows, then act surprised when it drops dead... DEMOCRACY You have two cows. The government taxes you to the point that you must sell them both in order to support a man in a foreign country that has only one cow which was a gift from your government... Monty
