A little boy goes to his dad and asks, "What are Politics?"<br />n<br />nDad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way:<br />n<br />n1. I'm the head of the family, so call me President.<br />n<br />n2. Your mother is the administrator of the money, so call her the<br />nGovernment.<br />n<br />n3. We're here to take care of your needs, so we'll call you the People.<br />n<br />n4. The nanny, we'll consider her the Working Class.<br />n<br />n5. Your baby brother, we'll call him the Future.<br />n<br />nNow think about that and see if it makes sense.<br />n<br />nSo the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad said. Later that<br />nnight, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him. He<br />nfinds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper. So the little boy goes to<br />nhis parent's room and finds his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to wake<br />nher, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he peeks in the<br />nkeyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back<br />nto bed.<br />n<br />nThe next morning, the little boy says to this father, "Dad, I think I<br />nunderstand the concept of politics now." The father says, "Good, son, tell<br />nme in your own words what you think politics is all about." The litte boy<br />nreplies:<br />n<br />n"The President is screwing the Working Class,<br />n<br />nWhile the Government is sound asleep.<br />n<br />nThe People are being ignored<br />n<br />nAnd the Future is in deep shit!"
