The tale of the mouse, dog, crow, and lion

The story of a group of elites, driven by capital interests, gradually lose their conscience and madly accumulate money.

Watching a group of rats corrode the people's granary. The funny thing is that the rat gave the stolen food to the dog who oversees the warehouse, and the dog turned a blind eye to the theft. The food was given to the crows, and the crows kept croaking for them in front of other animals, encouraging everyone to send more food into the warehouse.

Once winter comes, when the animals intend to take out the stored food from the warehouse to prepare for the winter, they open the warehouse and find that they are devastated. At this time, some of the fat-headed and big-eared mice turned their heads and ran away, carrying the rich stolen fruit. The animals demanded that the dog in charge be held accountable, arrest the rats, and return the food, but the dog, who had already received a lot of bribes, did not do so, because arresting the rat requires examining the whereabouts of the stolen food, so it would be exposed.

The animals found the lion to judge again, but the lion?️ Even if he knew it, there was nothing he could do about it, after all, he could be a king, thanks to the rats and dogs, and the food they stole, which fed almost the forest All powerful animal nobles, if they decide to abandon them, the mouse and the dog will turn to support his opponent as king.

It seems that the warehouse management system is not good, but there is actually a problem with the system of the elected government. The government elected by ballots seems to be democratic, but it is very easy to be kidnapped by interest groups and threatened by ballots and cannot truly serve the people. Without an effective supervision mechanism, even saints will be corroded by bad environmental atmosphere. After all, human desires are unlimited.
