    You have two cows

    I like this little phrase for political theories.


    Socialism: You have two cows. The government takes one and gives it to your neighbour.

    Communism: You have two cows. You give them to the Government, and the Government then gives you some milk.

    Fascism: You have two cows. You give them to the Government, and the Government then sells you some milk.

    Capitalism: You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull.

    Naziism: You have two cows. The Government shoots you and takes the cows.

    Bureaucracy: You have two cows. You give them to the Government, they shoot one and milk the other then pour the milk down the drain.

    A regular and worn out feature on P.ie. Check it out on "search". Remarkable though that a supporter of far-left politics should adduce it.

    Sinnfeinism: You have two cows but someone keeps beating them up and robbing their milk. SF say they know who is doing it and can stop it happening, if you give them some milk and leave the cows to them in your will.

    FiannaFailism: You have two cows you ride one to death and deny the existance of the other.
