Hi Vera,
Could you please ask Pastor Tim (the Wiseman) to tell us how we can avoid been
trapped by the *cow-isms* disease. Is there a way out these carefully crafted
and well designed exploitative methods?
Kindest regards,

> *Cow-isms*
>
> *Various organizational philosophies explained in "two cow" terms.*
>
> Socialism: you have two cows. You keep one and give one to your neighbor.
>
> Communism: you have two cows. The government takes them both and provides
> you with milk.
>
> Feudalism - You have two cows. Your lord takes some of the milk.
>
> Fascism - You have two cows. The government takes both, hires you to take
> care of them, and sells you the milk.
>
> Totalitarianism - You have two cows. The government takes them both and
> denies they ever existed and drafts you into the army. Milk is banned.
>
> Bureaucracy: you have two cows. The government takes them both, shoots one,
> milks the other, pays you for the milk, and then pours it down the drain.
>
> Corporate: you have two cows. You sell one, force the other to produce the
> milk of four cows and then acts surprised when it drops dead.
>
> Democratism: you have two cows. The government taxes you to the point that
> you must sell them both in order to support a man in a foreign country who
> has only one cow which was a gift from your government.
>
> Capitalism: you have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull.
>
> Enron Venture Capitalism - You have two cows. You sell three of them to your
> publicly listed company, using letters of credit opened by your
> brother-in-law at the bank, then execute a debt/equity swap with an
> associated general offer so that you get all four cows back, with a tax
> exemption for five cows. The milk rights of the six cows are transferred via
> an intermediary to a Cayman Island company secretly owned by the majority
> shareholder who sells the rights to all seven cows
> back to your listed company. The annual report says the company owns eight
> cows, with an option on one more.
