Boy Bastos - What is Politics?

I saw this joke ones and it's a good thing I managed to save it. I already forgot where I got it but I am sure every Pinoy can relate to this. So here it goes;
=====

Boy Bastos goes to his dad and asks, "What is Politics?"

Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way:

I'm the head of the family, so call me GMA (Gloria Macapagal Arroyo).

Your mother is the administrator of the money, so we call her the Government.
We're here to take care of your needs, so we'll call you the People.
Your Yaya Inday, we'll consider her the Working Class.
And your baby brother Junior, we'll call him the Future.
"Now, think about that and see if it makes sense."

So, the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad has said.

Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him. He finds that the baby has totally crapped in his diaper.

So, the little boy goes to his parent's room and finds his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to his yaya's room.

Finding the door locked, he looks in the peephole and finds his father in bed with Inday. He gives up and goes back to bed.

The next morning, the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now."

The father says, "Magaling, Boy Bastos! Tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about."

The little boy replies, "Si GMA yinayari pala talaga ang Working Class, tapos yung Government walang ginawa kundi tulog lang nang tulog. The People hindi pinapansin and the Future... nakalubog na sa ebak!"

I know this is not related to my blog but I just felt sad knowing that our country is in this situation already. So I took this joke and posted it here just for laughs instead of getting angry and cursing corrupt government officials. I hope with the new president, there won't be a need for jokes like this to gain his attention or to challenge him.

@master - salamat sa iyong pagbisita. Oo nga, kahit ako nung mabasa ko ay nasabi ko sa sarili ko "It makes sense."

@chie - oo nga, pero I know kaya ng Pinoy mag-survive. Pero sana di lang ma-survive ng bagong Presidente bagkus ay maiangat pa niya ang Pinas.

@LordCM - no problem kung i-repost mo haha! at gaya ng sabi ko kay chie sana mapabuti ng bagong pres natin.

@nobenta - haha! di ko kilala si Boy Bastos pero nabalitaan ko siya sa news na nahuli, siguro ginawa na lang main character siya sa istoryang ito.

@lifemoto - sa aking opinyon, siguro kahit sino naman sa mga naging presidente ay merong magandang pananaw para sa ating bansa, ang kaso ay masyado silang nasilaw sa kanilang kapangyarihan at dagdag pa ang mga nakikinabang na kurakot ding tauhan niya.

Sige pinuntahan ko na yung link niya, inaayos ko pa yung document. Gagawin ko kasing page at hindi article or blog. Maraming salamat sa pagbisita.
