A little boy goes to his dad and asks, "What is
Politics?"
Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this
way:
I am the head of the family, so call me The
President.
Your mother is the administrator of the money, so we call her the Government.
We are here to take care of your needs, so we will call you the People.
The nanny, we will consider her the Working Class.
And your baby brother, we will call him the Future.
Now think about that and see if it makes sense."
So 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 soiled his
diaper.
So the little boy goes to his parent's 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 say's to his
father,
"Dad, I think I understand the concept of
politics now."
The father says, "Good, son, tell me
in your own words what you think politics is all
about."
The little boy replies, "The President is screwing
the Working Class while the Government is sound
asleep.
The People are being ignored and the Future is in deep shit."
