WHAT IS POLITICS?

[MTpockets]

A small boy asks his dad "What is politics?" Dad
says, "Well son, let me try to explain it. I'm the
breadwinner of the family, so let's call me Capitalism.
Your mom, she's the administrator of the money, so we'll
call her the Government. We're here to take care of your
needs, so we'll call you the people. The Nanny, 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 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 parents 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 says 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, "Well, while Capitalism is
screwing the Working Class, the Government is sound
asleep, the people are being ignored and the Future is
in deep shit."
