"Defining Politics" joke
A little girl went to her father and asked, "Dad, what is politics?"
"Well, dear," he said, "let me try to explain it this way - I'm the breadwinner of the family, so we'll call me Capitalism. Mom 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. We'll call the Nanny the Working Class, and your baby brother, the Future. Think about all that and see if it makes any sense."
She then went off to bed, thinking about all her father had said. Later that night, she heard her baby brother crying and when she went to check on him, she found he had soiled his diaper. She then went to her parents' room, but found her mother fast asleep. Not wanting to wake her, she went to the Nanny's room and found the door locked. When she peeked in the keyhole, she saw her father was in bed with the nanny. She gave up and went back to bed.
The next morning, she said to her father, "I think I understand the concept of politics now."
"That's wonderful," he replied. "Tell me, in your own words, what you think it's all about."
"Well," replied the little girl, "while Capitalism is screwing the Working Class, the Government is sound asleep, the People are being ignored and the Future is in deep shit!"
