Poem - Democratic Dialog . . . from 1949!

This is from New York "Daily News" dated Friday, November 4,1949.

Nothing changes, does it?

 

 

DEMOCRATIC DIALOG

Father, must I go to work?
No, my lucky son.
We're living now on Easy Street
On dough from Washington

We've left it up to Uncle Sam
so don't get exercised.
Nobody has to give a damn
We've all been subsidized.

But if Sam treats us all so well
And feeds us milk and honey,
Please, daddy, tell me what the hell
He's going to use for money.

Don't worry, bub, there's not a hitch
In this here noble plan
He simply soaks the filthy rich
And helps the common man.

But, father, won't there come a time
When they run out of cash
And we have left them not a dime
When things will go to smash?

My faith in you is shrinking, son,
You nosy little brat;
You do too damn much thinking, son,
To be a Democrat.

Teenagers ARE smarter than parents . . .!

My husband and I went shopping the other day and my teenage son asked us to bring him back something to drink. We found a large bottle of sparkling apple cider on sale and returned home with that and put it in the refrigerator. My son was pleased.

Later in the day, we went to the Dollar Store and they had the same brand of sparkling apple cider only in a really small size. It was an exact replica of the large size only in a one-serving sized bottle. We purchased it and swapped it for the large bottle already in the refrigerator. My husband hid the big bottle in the unused ice chest in the garage. Then we waited for the eventual reaction when my son would discover his bottle of cider had 'shrunk'.

Two days went by . . . and nothing. Yesterday morning, we checked and the small bottle was still in place. We went out on an errand and when we got back, I noticed the big bottle was back in it's original place and the little bottle was missing! We immediately confronted my son who grinned evilly and said he had, indeed, discovered our plot and found the big bottle in the cooler and switched it with the little one to wait and see our reaction!
