BUREAUCRACY
  You have two cows. At first the government regulates what you can feed them and when you can milk them. Then it pays you not to milk them.  Then it takes both, shoots one, milks the other and pours the milk down the drain. Then it requires you to fill out forms accounting for the missing cows.

OLYMPICS-ISM
  You have two cows, one American, one Chinese. With the help of trilling violins and state of the art montage photography, John Tesh narrates the moving tale of how the American cow overcame the agony of growing up in a suburb with (gasp) divorced parents, then mentions in passing that the Chinese cow was beaten every day by a tyrannical farmer and watched its parents butchered before its eyes. The American cow wins the competition, severely spraining an udder in a gritty performance, and gets a multi-million dollar contract to endorse Wheaties. The Chinese cow is led  out of the arena and shot by Chinese government officials, though no one ever hears  about it. McDonald's buys the meat and serves it hot and fast at its Beijing restaurant.
