THE KID AND THE POLITICIANS
Mike was a very smart kid who always wondered why politicians argued on TV.
He asked his parents: “Why are those men always arguing?”
“They are politicians” – replied his parents – “Their job is to make citizens happy“.
Mike didn’t understand anything: “But what´s the purpose of always arguing? Is that how they serve us? It doesn´t make sense!”
And his parents said: ” Actually, those who work for the people should have a clear conscience, just as what you have to do is study at school and think about your future.”
