Singaporean Democracy

American Democracy 
The government promises to give you two cows, if you vote for it. After the election, the president is impeached for speculating in cow futures. The press dubs the affair 'Cowgate', but supports the president. The cow sues you for breach of contract. Your legal bills exceed your annual income. You settle out of court and declare bankruptcy. 

British Democracy 
You have two cows. You feed them sheep's brains and they go mad. The government doesn't do anything. 

European Democracy 
You have two cows. At first the government regulates what you can feed them and When you can milk them. Then it pays you not to milk them. After that it takes both, shoots one, milks the other and pours the milk down the drain. Then it requires you to fill out forms accounting for the missing cows. 

Capitalism

Capitalism 
You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. Your herd multiplies, and the economy grows. You retire on the income 

Hong Kong Capitalism 
You have two cows. You sell three of them to your publicly-listed company, using letters of credit opened by your brother-in-law at the bank, then execute a debt/equity swap with associated general offer so that you get all four cows back, with a tax deduction for keeping five cows. The milk rights of six cows are transferred via a Panamanian intermediary to a Cayman Islands company secretly owned by the majority shareholder, who sells the right to all seven. The annual report says that the company owns eight cows, with an option on one more. Meanwhile, you kill the two cows because of bad 'feng shui'. 

Other World Orders

Political Correctness 
You are associated with (the concept of 'ownership' is a symbol of the phallocentric, warmongering, intolerant past) two differently aged (but no less valuable to society) bovines of non- specified gender. You are torn by feelings of guilt, your psychotherapist recommends a treatment centre. You spend six weeks getting in touch with your inner self and graduate into Guilty Anonymous. 

Surrealism 
You have two giraffes. The government requires you to take harmonica lessons.
