A young black kid asks his mother, "Mama, what is Socialism and what is Racism?"


"Well, Child,... Socialism is when white folks work every day so we can get all our stuff, you know... like free cell phones for each family member, rent subsidy, food stamps, EBT, WIC, free school lunch, free healthcare, utility subsidy, and on and on, ...you know. That's Socialism.

"But, mama, don't the white people get pissed off about that?

"Sure they do, Honey. That's called Racism."

(Never more simply explained.)

Yes Indeed. So True It Hurts!!

Post that joke in the swamp and enjoy the reactions.

That's not a joke but a commentary on the world in which we live today....regardless of color.

Yes it is funny + no it's not. A good case in point here is something that I read in "The National Revue". We all get phone bills + wonder about all the itemized charges on the back. Well, here you go. You will find a 'Universal Tax + a local Universal Tax'. What that tax is is to supply free cell phones to welfare recipients. There was an interview with Ms. Tawanda Jackson that's said," Shore, every month when I goes down to get my entitlements I gets me another phone too. I must have 30 laying around here."

I know this is the humor column so this my last comment on that issue. As an addendum, I have said before + still adhere to MLK's words "To not judge by the color of skin but by the content of character". What I am seeing in these days of anarchy says something about the content of their character. So if this brands me a racist by the new terminology, then make the most of it.
