Politics:
A young boy goes to his father and asks, "What is Politics?" Dad says,
"Well, son, let me explain it this way...
I am the breadwinner of the family,
so let's call me Capitalism."
"Your mom, she's the administrator of the
household, so we'll call her the Government." "We're here to take care of
you, so we'll call you the "People." "The Nanny, well, she works hard
all day for very little money, so we'll consider her "The Working Class." "And
your baby brother- we'll call him The Future." "Now, think about that and
see if it makes sense."
So the boy thinks about it as he is falling asleep. In the night, he
hears his little brother crying, so he gets up to see what's wrong. He finds
that the baby has severely soiled his diaper. So, he goes to his parents'
room, and finds his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to disturb her, he goes
to the nanny's room, but the door is locked. Peeping through the keyhole, he
sees his dad in bed with the nanny, so he gives up and goes back to bed.
The next morning he tells his father he thinks he understands the
concept of politics. "Really?" says his dad, "That was quick. Tell me, in your
own words, what you think politics is all about." The young 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."
