The Bird Feeder (Anon)
I bought a bird feeder�I hung it on my patio and filled it lovingly with seed, it was indeed a beautiful bird feeder.
Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food.
But then the birds started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table,
and next to the barbecue. Then came the bird sh!t, it was everywhere on the patio tiles, the chairs, the table, everywhere!
Then some of the birds turned mean, they would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket. And other birds were boisterous and loud, they sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night, and demanded that I fill it when it got low on food.
After a while, I couldn�t even sit on my own back porch anymore, so I took down the bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the patio. Soon, the back yard was like it used to be�quiet, serene, and no one demanding their rights to a free meal.
Now let�s see. Brown & our government give out free food, subsidised housing, free medical care, and free education and allows anyone born here to be an automatic citizen.
