You have two cows. The government takes them and puts them in a barn with everyone else's cows. You have to take care of all the cows. The government gives you a glass of milk.

BUREAUCRATIC SOCIALISM
Your cows are cared for by ex-chicken farmers. You have to take care of the chickens the government took from the chicken farmers. The government gives you as much milk and eggs the regulations say you should need.

FASCISM
You have two cows. The government takes both, hires you to take care of them, and sells you the milk.

PURE COMMUNISM
You share two cows with your neighbors. You and your neighbors bicker about who has the most "ability" and who has the most "need". Meanwhile, no one works, no one gets any milk, and the cows drop dead of starvation.

RUSSIAN COMMUNISM
You have two cows. You have to take care of them, but the government takes all the milk. You steal back as much milk as you can and sell it on the black market.

You have two cows. A large group of people who have probably never raised cows themselves control how you raise your cows and how much milk the government can take.

AMERICAN COLONIAL GOVERNMENT
you have two cows. the state government takes one, the British government takes one and you owe another for taxes, and the church gets all the milk.

BUREAUCRACY
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. Then 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
You don't have any cows. The bank will not lend you money to buy cows, because you don't have any cows to put up as collateral.

You have two cows, one American, one Chinese. With the help of trilling violins and state of the art montage photography, John Tesh narrates the moving tale of how the American cow overcame the agony of growing up in a suburb with (gasp) divorced parents, then mentions in passing that the Chinese cow was beaten every day by a tyrannical farmer and watched its parents butchered before its eyes. The American cow wins the competition, severely spraining an udder in a gritty performance, and gets a multi-million dollar contract to endorse Wheaties. The Chinese cow is led out of the arena and shot by Chinese government officials, though no one ever hears about it. McDonald's buys the meat and serves it hot and fast at its Beijing restaurant.

You have two cows. You use them to do labor, provide milk, etc. until they no longer can, and then you worship them.

There is a guy that has little power over your cows who you give milk, although as much as 10% of the population is without milk or cows. The government regulates what you can do with your cows, until a government building is bombed and you must get new government officials, who change these regulations. If your cows do not produce champion bulls, the field in which you graze it in will be used as a soccer field.

In a capitalist state, if you've got two cows, you can sell one to buy a bull in order to breed more cows (and bulls).

In a socialist state, if you've got two cows, the government may come along and take one of them and give it to your neighbor who has none.

In a communist state, if you've got two cows, the government will take both of them and give you two bottles of milk.

And in a fascist state, if you've got two cows, the government will take both of them and shoot you for not immediately surrendering them to the state.
