Bibi and the bulldozer
Here's a nice bed-time story of little Bibi and his fight against the strong
and powerful Bulldozer. One night Bibi awoke in a sweat and realized that
the Bulldozer controlled him totally, if he didn't act soon he'd belong to
the Bulldozer for life. So he thought of a plan. He would announce that he
no longer liked the Bulldozer and he wouldn't work for him anymore. But, he
realized that this was a very dangerous move, because the Bulldozer was
powerful and could do whatever he liked.
But, Bibi knew that although he had gone along with the Bulldozer, people
would know that it was because he was forced to, and since there were a lot
of people who were in the same predicament as he, there would be a lot of
people who would support him. So he openly challenged the Bulldozer, and
yesterday announced that he would run against the Bulldozer to be head of
their party.
The Bulldozer sniffed and growled. How dare that little twerp challenge
him, the infamous Bulldozer, who could turn on a dime, who could take
whatever action he liked. He who could switch his policies and change his
Government as he pleased. He would bulldoze this fatuous challenger, he
would bulldoze the whole party if necessary. In any case, there were many
who were loyal to him, he commanded great respect and loyalty, even fear.
If many of his enemies followed the brainless Bibi he would push them into
outer space and they would never be heard from again.
But, the Bulldozer failed to see the situation as it really was. He was,
after all getting older, and many resented his actions, using different
parties as if they were his personal property. Bibi felt he knew the mood
of the people, that they were sick of the Bulldozer's antics, forcing people
to leave their homes, then claiming he would never do it again. People
feared that he could and would, they knew that once he had the power he
would do whatever he liked again, he would bulldoze the opposition.
So Bibi smiled to himself when the Bulldozer issued terrible threats against
him. He mused to himself, that's precisely what the people don't like about
him, throwing his weight around as if he owned the place. I think I may
have a chance to replace him. And if I do he'll be out, the party will
reject him, and he'll try to form his own party just like a spoilsport and
like others did before him. But he'll fail and he's the one who will be
thrown into outer space. So Bibi smiled to himself and dreamed of a happy
future in which he could become a Bulldozer.
