In Soviet Russia, joke laughs at *you*

[cyrano]

A unionized public employee, a member of the Tea Party and a CEO are sitting at a table. In the middle of the table there is a plate with a dozen cookies on it. The CEO reaches across and takes 11 cookies, looks at the tea partier and says,"look out for that union guy, he wants a piece of your cookie."

So the joke is about your country, isn't it? Could I quote the title of your post to my Russian friends?

Of course! I should say, however, that the format is stolen from a comedian named Yakov Smirnoff.
