* Socialism: You have two cows. You keep one and give one to your neighbor. * Communism: You have two cows. The government takes them both and provides you with milk. * Fascism: You have two cows. The government takes them and sells you the milk. * Bureaucracy: You have two cows. The government takes them both, shoots one, milks the other, pays you for the milk, and then pours it down the drain. * Capitalism: You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. * Corporate: You have two cows. You sell one, force the other to produce the milk of four cows and then act surprised when it drops dead. * Democracy: You have two cows. The government taxes you to the point that you must sell them both in order to support a man in a foreign country who has only one cow which was a gift from your government. |
