TWO COWS

[Lloyd Danforth]

I just saw this on the other forum and thought it was worth putting in front of some more eyes.

Democracy
You have two cows.
Your neighbor has none.
You feel guilty for being successful.
Barbara Streisand sings for you.

Republicanism
You have two cows.
Your neighbor has none.
So?

Socialism
You have two cows.
The government takes one and gives it to your neighbor.
You form a cooperative to tell him how to manage his cow.

Communism
You have two cows.
The government seizes both and provides you with milk.
You wait in line for hours to get it.
It is expensive and sour.

Capitalism, American Style
You have two cows.
You sell one, buy a bull, and build a herd of cows.

Bureaucracy, American Style
You have two cows.
Under the new farm program the government pays you to shoot one, milk the other, and then pour the milk down the drain.

       LOl of course the EU countries are  worse, Japan a lot worse. The average government support per cow in the EU is 2.50 a day, in Japan 7 dollars a day.

I've seen one a lot over the years I'd like to share, in reference to those who believe our Government is truly a "Democracy":

Democracy- Three wolves and two sheep, voting on what's for dinner.

Democracy in America
When Democrats are in office they take 1 cow
When Republicans seize power they take the other one

Shorty used to have a whole herd of dairy cows. I used to tell him he milked his job.

Back when shorty was around the taxes weren't so high

[AlanM]

Back when shorty was around the taxes weren't so high

Now the taxes are high,
As an elephants thigh,
And it looks like their climbing
Clear up to the sky.

Shorty told me he was in "Oklahoma" back in high school.
