Johnny comes home from school after his first lesson about democracy. His homework is to do a project about how the government works. Sure enough he asks his dad who says, "Well let's use our family as an example to help you get started."

"Let's say I represent capitalism, because I earn the money. Your mother budgets the money, so we'll call her the government. We provide for you, so you'll be the people. Your baby brother will represent the future, and um, the nanny will represent the underclass. Now you think about that for a while, then we'll get started on your project tomorrow."

That night Johnny wakes up to go to the bathroom and hears his brother fussing in the other room, so he goes in and notices he has a poopy diaper. He goes to get his mom, but she is sound asleep, so he decides to tell the nanny. When he peeks in he sees his dad is having sex with her. Shocked, he goes back to his bed.

The next day at the breakfast table Johnny's father asks, "So do you have any ideas for your project?"

...

"Well I learned that while capitalism is screwing the underclass the government sleeps, the people are ignored, and the future is deep in shit."
