POLITIC
SON: DAD, I HAVE TO DO A
SPECIAL REPORT FOR SCHOOL. CAN I ASK YOU A QUESTION?
FATHER: SURE SON, WHAT'S THE QUESTION?
SON: WHAT IS POLITICS?
FATHER: WELL, LET'S TAKE OUR HOME FOR EXAMPLE. I AM THE WAGE
EARNER, SO LET'S CALL ME MANAGEMENT. YOUR MOTHER IS THE
ADMINISTRATOR OF THE MONEY, SO WE'LL CALL HER GOVERNMENT. WE TAKE
CARE OF YOUR NEEDS, SO LET'S CALL YOU THE PEOPLE. WE'LL CALL THE
MAID THE WORKING CLASS AND YOUR BABY BROTHER WE WILL CALL THE
FUTURE. DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
SON: I'M NOT REALLY SURE, DAD. I'LL HAVE TO THINK ABOUT IT.
That night awakened by his baby brother's crying; the boy went to
see what was wrong. Discovering the baby had seriously soiled his
diaper; the boy went to his parents' room and found his mother
sound asleep. He then went to the maid's room where, peeking
through the keyhole, he saw his father in bed with the maid. The
boy's knocking went totally unheard by his father and the maid,
so the boy returned to his room and went back to bed. The next
morning:
SON: DAD, NOW I THINK I UNDERSTAND POLITICS.
FATHER: THAT'S GREAT SON, EXPLAIN IT TO ME IN YOUR OWN WORDS.
SON: WELL, DAD, WHILE MANAGEMENT IS SCREWING THE WORKING CLASS
THE GOVERNMENT IS SOUND ASLEEP. THE PEOPLE ARE BEING COMPLETELY
IGNORED AND THE FUTURE IS FULL OF SHIT.
