Two Cows, One Joke

A Communist Joke

A journalist interviews a farmer: "If you have two bungalows, are you willing to give one to the country?"
The farmer, without hesitation: "Sure! For communism!"
Journalist: "If you have two tractors, will you give one to the country?"
Farmer: "Of course! For the better development of our country!"
Journalist: "If you have two million bucks, will you give one million to the country?"
Farmer: "Yes! For the livelihood of our comrades!"
Journalist: "If you have two cows, will you give one to the country?"

The farmer keeps silent, looking at the journalist, who then asks again: "Will you?"
The farmer answers firmly: "No."

The journalist is confused: "You’re so generous with money, houses, and tractors—why draw the line at cows?"

"Because," says the farmer, "I actually have two cows."
