You are slightly independent. Your children are teenagers (or you
decided not to inflict on the World further brainwashed life) and
life is starting to become bearable.
You, of course,
still work for the useless (Civil servants, lazy bastards etc.) via
tax but your business is good. Your life is comfortable.
You’re sitting in
the sun, sipping on a cold drink, contemplating your navel – and
your new, temporary swimming pool your friends and their teenage kids
enjoy so much on BBQ day/nights.
As you sit there the
peace and quiet is disturbed by a new neighbour moving in to your
cul-de-sac.
The new neighbour is
a single female with four, multi-coloured children, all under six.
You (your taxes) are responsible for and support this “family”.
The rules say that
each morning you must pick up these children, take them safely to
child-care, kindergarten or primary school (whether they want to or
not), you must pick them up from said activities at the appropriate
time and deliver them back home.
After ensuring that
food, beverage and entertainment is available for them you may return
home, sit in the sun and guard the swimming pool against incursion of
the afore mentioned children.
At least that’s
what the Water Safety Council demands.
They want to ban
above ground (temporary) swimming pools because, once every two
years, someone drowns in one.
That someone is,
invariably, an unattended toddler. Note the "unattended".
The Water Safety
Council demands that YOU are responsible for that toddler!
