I recently asked my friends little girl what she wants to be when she grows up. She said she wants to be president of the United States. Bother of her parents, liberal democrats were standing there, so I asked her "If you were president, whats the first thing you would do?" She replied "I would give food & houses to all the homeless people!" Her parents beamed!
"Wow...what a worthy goal!" I told her, "But you dont have to wait to be president to do that. You can come over to my house, mow the lawn, pull weeds and sweep the driveway and I will pay you $50. Then I will take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out and you can give him the $50 to use towards food and a new house."
She thought that over for a few seconds, then 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?" I said "Welcome to the Republican party."
Her parents still aren't speaking to me.
