Subject: Two Cow Systems


     > anonymous explanation of what rules the world in simple two-cow
terms:
     >
     >
     > Socialism: You have two cows. The government takes one and gives
it 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.
     >
     > Capitalism: You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull.
     >
     > 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.
     >
     > 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.
     >
     > 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.
