Chicken an human

One day, the Chicken King convenes a meeting. It thought chicken’s position is too low. Chickens are killed as food for human. “The reason that human eat us because of they cannot leave us. We are a part of their lives.” A chicken says. “So we should stop to laying egg. Then people will find if they keep eating us we will get extinct.” After 5 minites, the Chicken King announces to the entire race of chicken to stop laying egg. A few days pass, human notices that there are only one egg left. Human realize this is a serious problem because you eat a chicken, a chicken disappears. So they creates a law to protect chicken. Since this, chicken’s position improves. People pride for having a chicken. If a person want to buy a chicken, it costs millions dollars. The last egg is much more valuable than chicken. Human uses two tank divisions to protect this egg. The hen who lays the last egg lives in a comfortable house and eat the best food in the world. Its position leads discontent form other hens. “All are hens, why that hen has better position than me? Because of a egg? I will lay one too.” That becomes the general ideas in chicken race. Then the second egg appears, then the third, the fourth. The Chikcken King trys to stop them. However, every hen does their best to lay egg. Agter that the law is canceled. Chicken returns to the human’s meal. The Chicken King wants to try again, but his officer says “human has known how to treat chicken when they stop laying egg.”

According to the story, I have to say it is a satire for human. It reveals human’s ridiculous market economy and human’s selfishness. In the story, it is a competition between human and chicken. However both of sides reflect human’s shadow. Human shows a values that they only cherish when they lose. Prior to the Chicken King bans to lay egg, people eat massive chicken and egg. After Chicken King bans, they begin to protect chicken. This is only example. In the real world, people made the environment worse and worse, until one day they found they cannot live without a clean environment, they began to take care the environment. In other side, chicken represents human in the story. They have a goal that protect the entire chicken race. However this goal was destroyed by individual desire. How selfish, how stupit, how true. Every individual hopes can be better than others. That's human nature. The UN has many environment protecting projects, but few of them can be followed. Sometimes a project has been passed by every countries. Every country’s delegate has signatured on the paper. A fews mouths pass, there is a country announced to quit the project. Then it led herd effect because other countries think if i follow this project, my development will reduce. Eventually every country quited the project.

Sometime, I doubt, is democracy can lead human to right future? The citizen has short-term vision. The politicians take care their own positions, so they listen the short-term vision citizens to realize the citizen’s goals. Can we hope this bring the peaceful and sustainable world?

PS: is this a little bit pessimistic
