COMMUNIST

You have two cows.
The government seizes both and provides you with milk.

It is expensive and sour.


CAPITALISM, AMERICAN STYLE

You have two cows.
You sell one, buy a bull, and build a herd of cows.


DEMOCRACY, AMERICAN STYLE

You have two cows.
The government taxes you to the point you have to sell both to support a
man in a foreign country who has only one cow, which was a gift from your
government.


BUREAUCRACY, AMERICAN STYLE

You have two cows.
Under the new farm program the government pays you to shoot one, milk the
other, and then pours the milk down the drain.


AMERICAN CORPORATION

You have two cows.
You sell one, lease it back to yourself and do an IPO on the 2nd one.
You force the two cows to produce the milk of four cows. You are

Most are at the top of their class at cow school.

You have two cows.
You engineer them so they are all blond, drink lots of beer, give

The Mafia shows up and takes over however many cows you really have.

They go into hiding.
They send radio tapes of their mooing.

best-looking cow.

ARISTOCRATISM: You have two cows. You sell both and buy one really big cow - with a pedigree

UNITED NATIONISM: You have two cows. France vetoes you from milking them.

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

Greek you have two cows.
You start an in depth expose of marxism and how it evolves to social democracy. Another starts a large expose of capitalism, efficiency and free markets. You talk about national harmony while swearing at the opposite side. Someone brings in Plato and what he said about cows. Someone counter responds with Aristotle. The Church intervenes and asks wether the cows will have the title "Christian Orthodox" in the IDs. The discussions keep going despite the cows having died of old age a long time ago.

Postmodernism

You have two cows.
You argue that you cannot take the risk of milking them,
because you fear long-term psychological damage on yourself and on both cows.
So you set them free, then you go into a hunger strike for the freedom of all cows.
Once all cows are free you whine that there is no milk.
