Politics
Son: "Dad, I have to do a special report for school, can I ask you a question?"Dad: "Sure son, what's the question?"
Son: "What is Politics?"
Dad: "Well, let's take our home for example. I am the wage earner, so let's call me MANAGEMENT. Your mother is the adminstrator of the money, so we'll call her GOVERNMENT. We take care for your needs, so lets call you THE PEOPLE. We'll call the maid WORKING CLASS and your baby brother THE FUTURE. Do you understand?"
Son: "I'm not really sure dad, I'll have to think about it."
That night awakened by his baby brother's crying, the boy went to see what was wrong. Discovering the baby had seriously soiled his diaper, the son went to his parent's room, and found his mother asleep. He then went to the maid's room, where peeking through the keyhole, he saw his father in bed with the maid. The boy's knocking went unheard by his father and the maid, so he returned to his room and went back to sleep.
The next day the boy and his father continued the conversation.
Son: "Dad, now I think I understand politics.
Dad: "That's great son, explain it to me in your own words."
Son: "Well, dad, while MANAGEMENT is screwing THE WORKING CLASS, THE GOVERNMENT is sound asleep. THE PEOPLE are being completely ignored and THE FUTURE is full of shit!"
