This one is a little different...
Two Different Versions! ........ Two Different
Morals!
OLD VERSION: The ant works hard in the withering
heat all summer long,
building his house and laying up supplies
for the winter.
The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs
and dances and plays
the summer away.
Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed.
The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies
out in the cold.
MORAL OF THE STORY: Be responsible for yourself!
MODERN VERSION: The ant works hard in the withering
heat all summer long,
building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.
The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs
and dances and plays
the summer away.
Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press
conference and
demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm
and well fed while
others are cold and starving.
CBS, NBC , PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide
pictures of the shivering
grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable
home with a table
filled with food. America is stunned by
the sharp contrast.
How can this be, that in a country of such wealth,
this poor grasshopper
is allowed to suffer so?
Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper and
everybody cries
when they sing,
'It's Not Easy Being Green.'
Acorn stages a demonstration in front of the ant 's
house where the news
stations film the group singing, 'We shall overcome.'
Rev. Jeremiah Wright
then has the group kneel down to pray to God for the
grasshopper's sake.
Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid exclaim in an
interview with Larry King that
the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper,
and both call for
an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair
share.
Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity &
Anti-Grasshopper Act
retroactive to the beginning of the summer.
The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate
number of green bugs
and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his
home is
confiscated by the Government Green Czar.
The story ends as we see the grasshopper finishing
up the last bits of
the ants food while the government house he is in, which
just happens to be
the ant's old house, crumbles around him because he doesn't
maintain it.
The ant has disappeared in the snow.
The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related
incident and the house,
now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who
terrorize the once
peaceful neighborhood.
MORAL OF THE STORY: Be careful how you vote in 2010.
