This is a story about a kid named billy. Billy was an obnoxious little bastard and nobody liked him. In fact, they used to take turns beating the living shit right out of him, and stealing his lunch money. So billy spent his life in his room, thinking up ways to get even with these people. One day, billy discovered a game called monopoly. Billy liked the game immensely and played it for days on end. He played it enough that he developed some really brutal strategies, and became invincible. Then he would challenge the kids who didn't like him to play monopoly, and would beat them unmercifully. Billy would stop at nothing to win, even if he had to cheat to do it. One day, billy got a job at a computer company, writing software. Since this job interfered with playing monopoly, he used some of the strategy he had developed, and found a program that he liked, stole it, re wrote a little bit of the code, and turned it in as being his own. At first, no one noticed. Billy got a big raise. Billy continued this strategy until finally he was promoted to being president of the company. Billy had a lot of money now, and people were starting to notice that a lot of his programs looked an aweful lot like theirs. Some people started complaining about having their programs stolen. To save himself a lot of grief, billy would just buy out the company who was complaining, fire all the employees, steal the programs, and sell them as being his. Soon all the small companies were gone. When billy tried this approach on big companies, he discovered that they had really good lawyers. Not one to be outdone, billy just bought out the judges involved in the cases. Having done that, he could not lose. Billy was now the richest person in the world. And to this day, he still plays monopoly. It's the American Way.
