Her folks still aren't talking to me.

Sharing: A lesson on human nature

I was talking to a friend of mines little girl the other day. I asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up and she replied, "I want to be President!" Both of her parents are liberal Democrats and were standing there. So then I asked her, "If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?"

She replied, "I'd give houses to all the homeless people."

"Wow - what a worthy goal." I told her, "You don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I'll pay you $50. Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where this homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward a new house."

Since she is only 6, she thought that over for a few seconds. While her Mom glared at me, she looked me straight in the eye and asked, "Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?"

And I said, "Welcome to the Republican Party."

Her folks still aren't talking to me.

And I said, "Welcome to the Republican Party."

Then I asked her, "Now if you were President what would be the first thing you would do?"

She replied, "I'd give bailouts to [s:59500a3df2]all[/s:59500a3df2] some of the bankless executives."

"Wow - what a worthy goal." I told her, "You don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my house and watch me mow, pull weeds, and sweep my yard 24/7 for the next 240 years, and I'll pay you $1,000,000,000,000. Then I'll take you over to the country club where the bankless executives hang out, and you can give them the $1,000,000,000,000 to use toward new banks."

Since she is only 6, she thought that over for a few seconds. While her Mom glared at me, she looked me straight in the eye and asked, "Why don't the bankless executives come over and do the work, and you can just pay them the $1,000,000,000,000?"

And I said, "Because they don't have to."

Her folks still aren't talking to me, or to anyone. They're too busy trying to raise their share of the $1,000,000,000,000.
