WHAT KIND OF PIG ARE YOU?

(2-minute tail about economics)

A kid at school reads his homework:

- Do you know how wild pigs are caught?

The teacher thought it was a joke and expected a funny story.

The young man replied that it was not a joke, and seriously began his dissertation:

- To catch wild pigs, first, a place is located in the forest where wild pigs usually go, and some corn is scattered daily on the ground.

One day, the trapper sets up a straight fence on the side of the corn. Initially, pigs don't like this change, but as they continue to have free food, they ignore that and continue to come. The trapper repeats the process setting up another piece of fence and another and another until he has the 4 sides of a perfect trap around the free food.

The last day, he installs a door on one side.Pigs are already used to feed on the magic food that is given for free and fences around it, and so they begin to come alone through the entrance.

It is then that the trapper closes the gate and captures the entire group.

At first, they start running, they also scream and even fight against each other to find a way out, but they are already trapped. Afterward, when they calm down because they acknowledge there is no way to escape, they begin to eat the free corn.

After some days, they get so used to it that they forget how to look for their own food, and so they accept slavery waiting for the trapper to come with the food. They are even grateful to their captors and for generations go to the slaughterhouse happily. They don't even distrust that the hand that feeds them is the same hand that kills them.

The student finally stops reading, looks into the eyes of his audience, turns to the teacher, and asks him: 

"What kind of pig are you?"
