what is politics ?
There was this little boy, who after watching TV one night asked his father, "What is politics?" And the father said, "Well, let me explain it this way. I go to work every day and bring home the money - so I am what you call a Capitalist. Now your mother takes the money, pays the bills and makes sure everything runs well - so she is called the Government. And because we take care of you, you would be the People. Now your nanny is the Working Class and your little baby brother would be what we all consider the Future." The little boy said, "Okay," and went out to play. Later that night, he was awakened by the baby crying. He got up and went into the baby's room and, WOW, did it stink ....very bad diaper. So he went into his parent's room, but his mom was sleeping and his dad was missing. So he went looking for his dad and he heard sounds from his nanny's room. He tried the door, it was locked then he looked through the keyhole and saw his dad and the nanny going at it together in the bed. So the little boy decided to go back to sleep. The next morning when he saw his dad he said, "Dad, I know what politics really means now!" His dad very proudly said, "Well, great. Tell me in your own words." "Well," said the little boy, "Politics is when the Capitalists screw the Working Class, while the Government sleeps, the People are ignored and the Future is in deep shit...."
