“I hear that New York is about to elect a socialist mayor. I thought it would take longer for Lenin to get a mayor elected in America.”

- “No, it’s not that kind of socialism. It’s 100 years in the future. Politicians call themselves socialist to show that they support social programs. Things that focus on society and not simply serving billionaires.”

“Oh, that’s right, I heard Mr. Rockefeller became a billionaire just a few years ago. One billion dollars is a lot of money.”

- “In the future there will be hundreds of billionaires, and the richest among them are worth hundreds of billions of dollars.”

“Oh, the country must be doing very well then.”

- “No, the billionaires have all the money, and the quality of life for everyone else in America is regressing.”

“So, they don’t love the billionaires?”

- “No, the likely mayor of New York says there shouldn’t be any billionaires. He plans to tax them heavily.”

“Is he insane?”

- “No, he’s Muslim.”

“I don’t even know what that is. Is it worse than insane?”

- “You wouldn’t like it.”

“Well, he simply has to go then.”

- “They’re working on it.”
