Fascism - You have two cows, the government takes both of them and sells you milk.
Nazism - You have two cows, the government takes both of them and shoots you.
Communism - You have two cows, the government takes both of them and gives you milk.
Socialism - You have two cows, and you give one to your neighbour.
Capitalism - You have two cows, you sell one of them and buy a bull.
Bureaucracy - You have two cows, the government takes both of them, shoots one, milks the other and pours the milk down the drain.
