THE ANT AND THE GRASSHOPER The ant works hard in the withering heat and the rain 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 he is cold and starving. CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, MSNBC 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 and label the ant as the greedy 1%. Chris Matthews asks, How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so? Then he says the Republicans caused it and they just want the Grasshopper to die!!!! Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper and everybody cries when they sing, Its Not Easy Being Green..Occupy the Anthill stages a demonstration in front of the ants house where the above so called news stations film the Occupy Movement, SEIU and ACORN Yelling No Justice, No Peace followed by them singing, We shall overcome, Imagine and Kumbaya. Then Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Jesse Jackson and Al Not So Sharpton have the group kneel down to pray for the grasshoppers sake, while they condem the ant and say his selfishness was the result of racism and Income Inequality. President Obama condemns the ant and blames President Bush 89, Bush 67, President Reagan, Christopher Columbus, and the Pope, Fox News, ATMs, The Tsunami In Japan, Global Warming, The Tea Party, Big Banks, Private Jet Owners, Wall Street Greed, The Arab Spring, The BP Oil Spill and The Worse Economy Since the Great Depression for the grasshoppers plight.. Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid exclaim in interviews with Bill Maher and Rachel Maddcow 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 and then pass a 2700 page bill called GrasshopperCare that no one reads before it becomes law. Finally, the EEOC drafts a 4000 page Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer that will heavily regulate the ants activities. 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 and given to the grasshopper. The story ends as we see the grasshopper and his free-loading friends finishing up the last bits of the ants food while the government house he is in, which, as you recall, just happens to be the ants old house, crumbles around them because the grasshopper doesnt maintain it. The ant has disappeared in the snow, never to be seen again. 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 ramshackle, once prosperous and peaceful, neighborhood. The entire Nation collapses bringing the rest of the free world with it...
