You keep one and give one to your neighbor. COMMUNISM You have two cows. The government takes them both and provides you with milk. FASCISM You have two cows. The government takes them and sells you the milk. BUREAUCRACY You have two cows. The government takes them both, shoots one, milks the other, pays you for the milk, and then pours it down the drain. CAPITALISM You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. CORPORATE You have two cows. You sell one, force the other to produce the milk of four cows, then act surprised when it drops dead. DEMOCRACY You have two cows. The government taxes you to the point that you must sell them both in order to pay the taxes to support a man in a foreign country who has only one cow which was a gift from your government. COHOUSING You have two cows. Some members want to buy a bull, but they don¹t want to sell either cow. Some want to sell both cows and build a barn. Some members want to milk the cows, but some feel that this would break the universal lactic harmonic balance and would set the cows free. Some members want to use the methane from the cows for power generation, but others are worried about the methane causing global warming. You still have two cows. _______________________________________________ Cohousing-L mailing list Cohousing-L [at] cohousing.org Unsubscribe and other info: http://www.cohousing.org/cohousing-L
