Listening to some of the protesters at Occupy Wall Street reminds me of this story:
Two old Russian peasants are walking down a path when one kicks a bottle and a genie pops out. The genie says, "I will grant you both one wish."
Excited the first peasant says, "Oh comrad genie, I am a simple man. All I could ever wish for is a prized goat. One that would provide fresh goat milk for my family and that I could show off to my neighbors.
The genie says "Granted" and poof a beautiful, prized goat appears next to the peasant. Then the genie turns to the second man.
"And what is your wish, comrad?"
"I want that goat to die."
