Conversation With My Future Daughter At (Approx) Age 8
Spoken in loud voice from inside the voting booth:
"Angelina, this is the list of theives who want to take our money. The game of voting is to pretend that you can pick the one that will take the least of
our money. But they all lie, so I just pick one at random, see?"
"Oh, and this is the list of tyrants who want to control our lives. What we
choose doesn't make a difference, but this is how most people do it."
"Now, get a sticker from the nice lady. People who wear this sticker show that they are dupes and know-nothings. Let's go get some ice cream!"
