A Socialist Parable: The Mexican Fisherman and the Neoliberal.
Submitted by Mark from Queens on Fri, 03/25/2016 - 8:40pmIn a tiny Mexican village a boat just docked after being out at sea. An American tourist approached to compliment the Mexican fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took him to catch them.
"Not very long," answered the Mexican.
"But then, why didn't you stay out longer and catch more?" asked the American.
The Mexican explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his needs and those of his family.
