A child asks his father, "Dad, what is politics?" His father answers, "Politics is our family. I go to work and earn money, so I'm the capitalist. Your mother manages the finances and household, so she's the government. We take care of your needs, so you are the people. Your little sister is still small, so she's the future. And our maid is the working class."
The child thought for a moment, then asked, "And our dog?"
The father smiled and said: "Oh, that dog is the opposition. It always barks, but no one listens to it."
