A young boy asked his Dad, "What is politics? Dad says, "Well son, let me explain it this way.

I'm the breadwinner so lets call me Capitalism. Your mother is the administrator of the money, so we'll call her the Government. We're here to take care of your needs so we'll call you the People. The Nanny we'll call the Working Class. Let's call your baby brother the Future. Now think about that and see if it makes sense."


So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad said. Later that night he hears his baby brother crying so he gets up to check on him and finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper.



The boy goes to his parent's room and finds his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the Nanny's room. Finding the door locked he peeks through the keyhole and finds his father in bed with the Nanny. He then gives up and goes back to bed.

The next morning the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I understand politics now".

Father says, "Good son, tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about".

The boy replies, "While Capitalism is screwing the Working Class, the Government is sound asleep, the People are being ignored, and the Future is in deep shit."
