A little boy goes to his dad and asks, “What is politics?”
The dad says, “Well son, let me try to explain it this way: I’m the breadwinner of the family, so let’s call me capitalism.
Your mother, she’s 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 consider her the working class.
And your baby brother, we’ll call him the future.
Now, think about that and see if that makes sense.”
The little boy goes off to bed thinking about what dad had said. Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him.
