<p dir="auto">This is an old Soviet "joke" that sums up the communist mentality.<br />
A farmer is out working his land one day when he finds an old lamp buried in his field. As he rubs the dirt off it, a genie escapes.<br />
"Thank you so much for freeing me. As a reward I will grant you whatever you wish."<br />
The farmer doesn't hesitate.<br />
"See my neighbors farm there? He has a much nicer house than me. He always has abundant harvests while my crops wither and die. His cows never get sick, whereas mine are always diseased. His hens lay twice as many eggs. His pampered wife is young and beautiful, while mine is old and worn down by age and hard work. His children are brilliant and will one day be doctors and lawyers, but mine can't even read or write, and… "<br />
Getting the picture, the genie cuts him off.<br />
"I see. You'd like me to make you just as fortunate as him?"<br />
The farmer looks puzzled.<br />
"No, don't be silly, I want you to make him just like me."<br />

<p dir="auto">Back in my day we had to walk 10 miles to school uphill both ways barefoot in the snow. We had to write out everything by hand in the dark and blindfolded. Then got beaten if it wasn't perfect.</p>

<p dir="auto">In what way do kids have it for easy? The children of bany boomers are the first generation expected to earn less than their parents generation because they did nothing to make sure they left them a better world. Fucking boomers.<br />

<p dir="auto">It's not like American attitudes are any different. How many boomers out there complain about the kids these days having it too easy? They're never happy for the kids. The oldlings just want the kids to be as miserable as they were.<br />
And then you have people making $18 an hour who would feel inadequate if minimum wage got raised to $15 an hour.<br />
With that out of the way, here's the best Soviet joke:<br />
A man goes into a shop and asks "You don't have any meat?". "No," replies the sales lady. "We don't have any fish. It's the store across the street that doesn't have any meat."</p>
