Pleb: We could go a lot further if you would just start up the 7000HP engine under the hood.
Government: You want us to use the Devil’s carbon emitter? No. We follow the science. Keep pulling. We’ve got some guys in here working on converting our ceiling fan into something that can push us forward using the power of the wind that you generate by pulling us forward!
Government: We’ve noticed that you don’t look so good.
Pleb: Well, my own wagon is much lighter. Can I spend a little time pulling that for a while?
Government: Oh God no. In our benevolence, we’ve decided that we need to be in charge of your health care. The wagon will double in size, and in a few short years we’ll let you know which line to stand in for a band-aid.
Pleb: Hey Boss, did you happen to notice that the road is crumbling and full of holes?
Government: Yeah, man. We’d love to do something about it but all of our resources are currently engaged studying the mating habits of non gendered indigenous groundhogs. The five heads all agree that the best course of action is to remove the wheels.
Pleb: How am I supposed to pull a wagon with no wheels?
Pleb: A couple of the boys and I took a vote about the direction we’re headed and uh, we’d like to have some assurance that our votes were counted.
Government: Well, all of us in here in the wagon voted too, buddy.
Pleb: That doesn’t really answer my question. Can we count em all up? Seems to us like there’s more votes from inside the wagon than people in the wagon.
Government: The wagon votes were expertly fortified, re-enforced, and buttressed by non partisan environmentalists, activists, and progressives. Now get back to pulling, Terrorist!
So, the government says that my excess of money should be shared with those who have less than I do. Well, shouldn’t those who have excess free time, because they’re not working, share it with me, since I’m busy earning excess money? I expect a work crew at my house every morning, waiting for their job list from me. That’s how this works, right?
Government: These golden seats are quite hard and uncomfortable you know?
Pleb: Yeah, and heavy too.
Government: That’s enough back sass out of you! Just keep pulling the wagon, racist.

Tax the rich.
Feed the poor.
Til there are no rich no more.
(And everyone is poor for evermore.)

Pleb: How am I supposed to pull a wagon with no wheels?
Government: Learn to fly.
Government: Hey, where do you think you’re going?
Pleb: Well, there’s a man over there on the right with some ideas about sustainable orange groves that I wanted to talk to.
Government: ORANGE MAN BAD! HARD TO PORT HARD TO PORT!
Pleb: Is there anything you can do to make it easier to pull this wagon?
Government: The science says that the best thing to do is invite people from other wagons that have been destroyed by poor leadership on to the wagon.
Pleb: Doesn’t that just make the wagon heavier?
Government: You are literally Hitler.
Pleb: A couple of the boys and I took a vote about the direction we’re headed and uh, we’d like to have some assurance that our votes were counted.

No.
Sorry.
So, you’re telling me it’s a one-way street with lefties?
And a Dead End.
