    Modern corporatist capitalism:

    You have two cows. Your neighbour, who has 400 cows, sues you because your cows have similar fur patterns to his. It’s obviously bullshit, so you hire lawyers to defend your case. They get hungry, so they slaughter and eat one of your cows, then stop working and go home when you refuse to give then the second cow. You settle with your neighbour, who takes the cow and half of the milk produced by the dead one every month. You still support this economy because one day you might have 500 cows and then they’ll all be sorry.
