The ant and the grasshopper
The ANT AND THE laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopperthinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the ant is warmand well fed. The grasshopperhas no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold. MORAL OF THE OLD STORY: Be responsible for yourself! MODERNVERSION: The ant works hardin the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopperthinks the antis a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while he is cold and starving. CBS, NBC , PBS, CNN,and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the antin his comfortable home with a table filled with food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so? Kermit the Frog appearson Oprah with the grasshopperand everybody cries when they sing, 'It's Not Easy Being Green..' ACORNstagesa demonstration in front of the ant'shouse where the news stations film the group singing, We shall overcome. ThenRev. Jeremiah Wright has the group kneel down to pray for the grasshopper's sake. President Obamacondemns the ant and blamesPresident Bush, President Reagan, Christopher Columbus, and thePopefor the grasshopper's plight. Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reidexclaim in an interview with LarryKingthat the ant has gotten rich off the back ofthegrasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the antto make him pay his fair share. Finally, the EEOC draftsthe Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning ofthe summer. The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate numberof green bugsand, havingnothing left topay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by theGovernmentGreen Czar and givento thegrasshopper. The story ends as we see the grasshopper and his free-loadingfriends finishing up the last bits of the ant'sfood while the government house he isin, which, as you recall, just happens to be the ant's old house,crumbles around them because the grasshopper doesn'tmaintain it. The ant hasdisappeared in the snow, never to be seen again. The grasshopper is founddead in a drug related incident, and the house, nowabandoned, is taken overby a gang ofspiderswho terrorize and ramshackle the once prosperousand peaceful neighborhood. The entire Nation collapsesbringing the rest of the free world with it. MORAL OF THE STORY: Be careful how you vote in 2012 |

Here's a math question for you: how can the top 20% wage earner ( probably me & you ) who pay most of the taxes in this country out vote the 47% who pay nothing?
It's not looking good for the "ants" |
