I filed a lawsuit today to remedy income inequality.
I told the judge that my neighbor has more money than
I do, so I asked him for some of his, but he refused to give it to me.
He said that he worked hard for his money and saved it,
whereas I am lazy and I squander every penny I get as soon as I get it.
He also said that he got himself educated and trained for
employment, whereas I spend all my time on parties and complaining.
So what, I said to the judge. None of that excuses the injustice of income
inequality. Why should I have less than
he has? I deserve more.
Besides, the things he said about me injured my self
esteem. I should get something for that,
too.
But the judge ruled against me, and he had the audacity to
say that if I wanted more money, I should earn it.
What was worse, my other neighbor sued me, because he has
less than I have, and he wants some of mine.
Why should I give him anything? What did he ever do for me?
I’m so angry about all this that I’m thinking of rioting and
burning down my house.
