来个英文版的牢骚: 
 
I see this system and on the surface 
It has long been familiar to me but not 
In its inner meaning! Some, a few, sit up above 
And many down below and the ones on top 
Shout down: ‘Come on up, then we’ll all 
Be on top’, but if you look closely you’ll see 
Something hidden between the ones on top and the ones below 
That looks like a path but is not a path — 
It’s a plank and now you can see it quite clearly 
It is a seesaw, this whole system 
Is a seesaw, with two ends that depend 
On one another and those on top 
Sit up there only because the others sit below 
And only as long as they sit below; 
They’d no longer be on top if the others came up 
Leaving their place, so that of course 
They want the others to sit down there 
For all eternity and never come up. 
Besides, there have to be more below than above 
Or else the seesaw wouldn’t hold. A seesaw, that’s what it is.  
 
-- Bertolt Brecht, "Saint Joan of the Stockyards"
