Politics Explained

A little boy goes up to his Dad and says "Dad, what is Politics?"

Dad says: "Well son, try and think of it this way. I'm the breadwinner so let's call me capitalism. Your mum, she's the Administrator of the money, so we'll call her the government. Now we're here to look after you, so we will call you the people. The Nanny, let's consider her the working class and your new baby brother, let's call him the future.

So the lad goes uo to bed and thinks about his Dad's analogy. Later that night he awakes to here his baby brother crying, so the dutiful lad goes in and finds he has filled his nappy. The big brother heads for his parents room to find his Mum sleeping on her own and so decided not to wake her.

He trots to the Nanny's room. The door is locked, so he peeks through the keyhole to find his Dad in bed with the Nanny so he gives up and goes back to bed.

Next morning the lad goes down to breakfast and his father says, "Well son, do you think you know what Politics is all about now?"

The little boy says, "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."
