Joke found on Reddit
A unionized public employee, a teabagger, and a CEO are sitting at a table. In the middle of the table is a plate with a dozen cookies on it. The CEO reaches across and takes 11 cookies, looks at the teabagger and says, 'Watch out for that union guy. He wants a piece of your cookie."

Source unknown.

29. Nah, he's just hoping some crumbs will "trickle down"
I'll never understand their willingness to be begging dogs rather than human beings entitled to a fair share.

Never underestimate the power of humor - especially in the form of satire.

24. Humor is a dangerous weapon
to those without any sense of humor. They are defenseless against it.

26. Odd
Your joke does not reflect what most CEOs do.

In reality, they leave just a few crumbs after they're through gorging at the trough. Replace "dozen" with "600 gazillion" (no other changes), but the joke loses its punch.

30. And the hell of it is...
The teabagger thinks if everyone just worked harder more cookies would be left over for others besides the CEO.

33. You could always add a line.........
The union guy turns to the teabagger and says, "There's more of us. We could always just take those 11 cookies back. We baked them after all!"
