California:
The Governor of California is jogging with his dog along a
nature trail. A coyote jumps out, bites the Governor and attacks his dog,
killing it.
1. The Governor starts to intervene, but reflects upon the movie "Bambi" and
then realizes he should stop; the coyote is only doing what is natural.
2. He calls animal control. Animal Control captures coyote and bills the
State $200 testing it for diseases and $500 for relocating it.
3. He calls a veterinarian. The vet collects the dead dog and bills the
State $200 testing it for diseases.
4. The Governor goes to hospital and spends $3,500 getting checked for
diseases from the coyote and on getting his bite wound bandaged.
5. The running trail gets shut down for 6 months while Fish & Game conducts
a $100,000 survey to make sure the area is free of dangerous animals.
6. The Governor spends $50,000 in state funds implementing a "coyote
awareness" program for residents of the area.
7. The State Legislature spends $2 million to study how to better treat
rabies and how to permanently eradicate the disease throughout the world.
8. The Governor ' s security agent is fired for not stopping the attack
somehow and for letting the Governor attempt to intervene.
9. Additional cost to State of California : $75,000 to hire and train a new
security agent with additional special training re: the nature of coyotes.
10. PETA protests the coyote ' s relocation and files suit against the
State.
Texas:
The Governor of Texas is jogging with his dog along a nature trail.
A Coyote jumps out and attacks his dog
1. The Governor shoots the coyote with his licensed concealed carry pistol and keeps
jogging. The Governor has spent $0.50 on a .380 ACP hollow point cartridge.
2. The Buzzards eat the dead coyote.
And that, boys and girls, is why California is broke . . . And more
importantly, why too much government doesn ' t work.
And if you understand this, you understand the Tea Party.
