A Cowsmic view of world organisation:



FEUDALISM
:
You have two cows. Your lord takes some of the milk.

PURE SOCIALISM
You have two cows. The government takes them and puts them
in a barn with everyone else's cows. You have to take care of all the cows.
The government gives you as much milk as you need.

BUREAUCRATIC SOCIALISM: 
You have two cows. The government takes them and
puts them in a barn with everyone else's cows. They are cared for by
ex-chicken farmers. You have to take care of the chickens the government
took from the chicken farmers. The government gives you as much milk and as many eggs as the regulations say you should need.

FASCISM: 
You have two cows. The government takes both, hires you to take
care of them, and sells you the milk.

PURE COMMUNISM: 
You have two cows. Your neighbours help you take care of them, and you all share the milk.

RUSSIAN COMMUNISM: 
You have two cows. You have to take care of them, but the
government takes all the milk.

DICTATORSHIP: 
You have two cows. The government takes both and shoots you.

SINGAPORE DEMOCRACY: 
You have two cows. The government fines you for keeping two unlicensed animals in an apartment.

MILITARIANISM: 
You have two cows. The government takes both and drafts you.

PURE DEMOCRACY: 
You have two cows. Your neighbours decide who gets the milk.


REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY: 
You have two cows. Your neighbours pick someone to
tell you who gets the milk.

AMERICAN DEMOCRACY: 
The government promises to give you two cows if you vote for it. After the election, the president is impeached for speculating in
cow futures. The press dubs the affair "Cowgate".

BRITISH DEMOCRACY: 
You have two cows. You feed them sheep's brains and they go mad. The government doesn't do anything.

BUREAUCRACY: 
You have two cows. At first the government regulates what you can feed them and when you can milk them. Then it pays you not to milk them. After that it takes both, shoots one, milks the other and pours the milk
down the drain. Then it requires you to fill out forms accounting for the
missing cows.

ANARCHY: 
You have
two cows. Either you sell the milk at a fair price or your neighbours kill you and take the cows.

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

HONG KONG CAPITALISM: 
You have two cows. You sell three of them to your
publicly listed company, using letters of credit opened by your
brother-in-law at the bank, then execute a debt/equity swap with associated
general offer so that you get all four cows back, with a tax deduction for
keeping five cows. The milk rights of six cows are transferred via a
Panamanian intermediary to a Cayman Islands company secretly owned by the
majority shareholder, who sells the rights to all seven cows' milk back to
the listed company. The annual report says that the company owns eight cows,
with an option on one more. Meanwhile, you kill the two cows because the
Feng Shui is bad.

ENVIRONMENTALISM: 
You have two cows. The government bans you from milking or
killing them.

LESBIANISM: 
You have two cows. They get married and adopt a veal calf.

TOTALITARIANISM: 
You have two cows. The government takes them and denies they ever existed. Milk is banned.

POLITICAL CORRECTNESS: 
You are associated with (the concept of "ownership"
is a symbol of the phallo-centric, war-mongering, intolerant past) two differently aged (but no less valuable to society) bovines of non-specified gender.

COUNTER CULTURE: 
Wow, dude, there's like... these two cows, man. You got to have some of this milk. Far out! Awesome!

SURREALISM: 
You have two giraffes. The government requires you to take harmonica lessons.

JAPANESE DEMOCRACY: 
You have two cows. You give the milk to gangsters so
they don't ask any awkward questions about who you're giving the milk to.

EUROPEAN FEDERALISM: 
You have two cows which cost too much money to care for
because everybody is buying milk imported from some cheap east-European
country and would never pay the fortune you'd have to ask for your cows'
milk. So you apply for financial aid from the European Union to subsidise
your cows and are granted enough subsidies. You then sell your milk at the
former elevated price to some government-owned distributor, which then dumps
your milk onto the market at east-European prices to make Europe competitive. You spend the money you got as a subsidy on two new cows and
then go on a demonstration to Brussels complaining that the European farm-policy is going drive you out of your job.

EASTERN EUROPEAN DEMOCRACY: 
You have two cows. You sell the milk (diluted
with some water) at a high price to the neighbours or to anyone at the open-air market. If somebody asks for receipt, you charge for a two times
higher price, so nobody will request an invoice. For concerned families with
small babies you claim that the milk is "bio", though you collect the grass for feeding at the side of the highway and you keep the milk in plastic barrels used previously as containers of dangerous chemicals. Later, your neighbour or anybody from town will steal the cows and will buy their meat
for a high price, and if you ask for a receipt, you will be charged for a two times higher price.

FINNISH SOCIALISM: 
You have two cows. Soon you have to kill one of them
because in the Netherlands there is an overproduction of milk and the European Union rules say so. When you do so, you realise that it was not
necessary, only the system was too slow in getting you the up-to-date news.
From the stress, you get an ulcer in your stomach so you go to a doctor. The
doctor realises that this ulcer is a serious one, so you need an urgent treatment. Therefore, you soon get a call to the local hospital. The call's date is for 3 months later, because there is a queue with more urgent cases.
Then your ulcer becomes even more serious because you remember that 40
percent of your income is taken for social tax.

Definition of Politics:

 

Son: Dad, I have a special report for school. Can I ask you a question?

 

Dad: Sure son, what's the question?

 

Son: What is politics?

 

Dad: Well son, let's take our home for example. I am the wage
earner, so let's call me the management. Your mother is the administrator of the money, so let's call her the government. We take care of you and your needs, so let's call you the people.
We'll call the maid the working class and your baby brother the future. Understand?

 

Son: I'm not really sure dad, I'll have to think about it.


That night, the boy is awakened by his baby brother's crying, so he went to see what was wrong. Discovering that the baby had
a heavily soiled nappy, the boy went to his parent's room and found his mother fast asleep. He than 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 totally unheard. The boy went back to his
room and went to sleep.

The next morning...

 

 

Son: Dad, I think I understand politics.

 

 

Dad: That's great son, explain it to me in your own words.

 

 

Son: While the management is screwing the working class, the government is fast asleep, the people are being completely ignored and the future is full of shit.


 

IQ-test???

 

Count the number of 'F' in the following text:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE-
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF-
IC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS




Managed it? Scroll down only after you have counted them!
OK?




























 





How many? Three?
Wrong, there are six - no joke!
Read again!
The reasoning is further down...

















 

 


The brain cannot process "OF".
Incredible or what?
Anyone who counts all six 'F' on the first go is a genius - three is normal, four quite rare.
