Are You Capitalist Or A Socialist ?

There is a joke I heard years ago ,explainning the difference between socialist and a capitalist .One day a socialist knocked on a farmer's door and asked him to join the local socialist party .Not knowing what a socialist was, the farmer asked for an example of socialist behaviour .

The socialist said ," if you have a cow ,then everyone in the village can have some milk from your cow.It's called sharing wealth ."

"Thats sound good ,"said the farmer .
"And if you have a sheep," the socialist said," then every one shares in the wool."
"Very nice," said the farmer." This socialism sounds good."
"Thats great ," said the socialist,believing that he had a convert to socialism ." And if you have a chicken ,then everyone shares in the egg."

"What?!!" the farmer screamed angrily . "Thats's terrible .Get out of here and take your socialist idea with you ."

"But,but,but," stammered the socialist ," I dont understand .You were happy with the idea of sharing milk and wool .Why you object the sharing eggs?"

"Because I dont have a cow or a sheep," snarled the farmer." But I do have a chicken ."

Lesson Learnt----Everyone agrees that we need to share the wealth , as long as it is your wealth ,not their wealth....hahaha
