Lesson in Dairy Science (no animals were maimed or killed during any part of this test)
DEMOCRATIC
You have two cows.
Your neighbor has none.
You feel guilty for being successful.
Barbara Streisand sings for you.
REPUBLICANISM
You have two cows.
Your neighbor has none.
So?
SOCIALIST
You have two cows.
The government takes one and gives it to your neighbor.
You form a cooperative to tell him how to manage his cow.
COMMUNIST
You have two cows.
The government seizes both and provides you with milk.
You wait in line for hours to get it.
It is expensive and sour.

Which parts don't you like especially?
Lady Jane, I guess mainly it's just that some of it isn't the sort of humor I usually pass along. I try to be kinder and more polite, generally, (at least in public, like this)...
That's not to say that it doesn't make some excellent points and memorable distinctions, in a delightfully concise manner.
For myself, I'd go easier on the American corporations (that have been over-demonized, in my view), I wouldn't have made the Polack joke a Polack joke, and I'd have skipped the Arnold joke altogether. Quibbles, though. Count them merely as quibbles ;-)
Actually, I completely agree with you on those points. I just posted it the way I received it. :)
Honestly, I do think corporations, which provide so many jobs, benefits, and products, are treated as evil by many. I almost, almost deleted the Arnold joke, because it is rather crude. I really don't know why I left it, other than to preserve the joke I was sent.
