How Politics Works....................

MY SON WAS FLUNKING OUT OF COLLEGE SO I TOLD MY SON,
"YOU WILL MARRY THE GIRL I CHOOSE."
HE SAID, "NO."
I TOLD HIM, "SHE IS BILL GATES' DAUGHTER."
HE SAID, "YES."

SO I CALLED BILL GATES AND SAID, "I WANT YOUR DAUGHTER
TO MARRY MY SON."
BILL GATES SAID, "NO."
I TOLD BILL GATES, "MY SON IS THE CEO OF THE WORLD BANK."
BILL GATES SAID, "OK.

"I CALLED THE PRESIDENT OF THE WORLD BANK AND ASKED HIM TO MAKE MY SON THE CEO.
HE SAID, "NO."
I TOLD HIM, "MY SON IS BILL GATES' SON-IN-LAW."
HE SAID, "OK."

AND THAT'S EXACTLY HOW POLITICS WORKS .
And thus began the practice of hiring morons to work in influential positions of government.
The practice is unbroken to this day.
