One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut. After the haircut, he asked for his bill and the barber replied, "I cannot accept money from you today. I'm doing community service this week." The florist was pleased and left the shop. When the barber went to open his shop the next morning, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen tulips waiting for him at his door.
Later, a cop came in for a haircut and when he tried to pay his bill, the barber again replied, "I cannot accept money from you today. I'm doing community service this week." The cop was happy and left the shop. The next morning when the barber went to open up, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.
Then a Member of Parliament came in for a haircut and when he went to pay his bill, the barber again replied, "I cannot accept money from you today. I'm doing community service this week." The politician was very happy and left the shop. The next morning, when the barber went to open up, there were a dozen Members of Parliament lined up waiting for a free haircut.
And that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between the citizens of our country and the politicians who run it.
