Thought this would give you pause to laugh a bit today so I borrowed it from Merle down in Australia.
A little boy goes to his Dad and asks, "What is Politics?"
Dad says, "Well, son, let me try to explain it this way.
I am the head of the family, so call me the Prime Minister.
Your mother is the administrator of the money, so we call her the Government.
We are here to take care of your needs, so we call you the People.
The Nanny, we will consider her the Working Class.
And your baby brother, we will 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 goes to
check on him.
He finds that the baby has severely soiled his nappy, (diaper)
So the little boy goes to his parent's room and finds his mother 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 are all about."
The little boy replies, "The Prime Minister is screwing the Working Class,
while the Government is sound asleep. The People are being ignored and
the Future is in deep s**t."
