"the industrious ant" Posted by Hello

Much like the industrious ant, WeeZ busies himself by storing up goods for the long season of inclement weather that will soon come. Instead of berries, WeeZ stores up chubbles. You can see at least 4 in his right cheek alone. Eventually the lazy grasshopper--here played by Demoni--will come to mooch but WeeZ'll have none of it.

I wonder if the fable of the hardworking ant and the lazy grasshopper is what lies at the base of the conservative mind. The no-account grasshopper lazes his days away, knowing he can suckle at the capitalistic teat of the industrious ant. But the ant won't play ball. Go and freeze, grasshopper. We were all born with equal access to the forest. Why should my berries be given to you? They would only reward your sloth. Better you die of hypothermia and learn a valuable lesson.

As a lefty, I've always favored Hansel & Gretel. A house made entirely of candy - just for the taking! Can you even imagine? Now that's government!
