A Psychology Experiment

You start with a cage containing four monkeys, and inside the cage you
hang a banana on a string, and then you place a set of stairs under the
banana.

Before long a monkey will go to the stairs and climb toward the banana.

You then spray ALL the monkeys with cold water. After a while, another
monkey makes an attempt. As soon as he touches the stairs, you spray
ALL the monkeys with cold water.

Pretty soon, when another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other
monkeys will try to prevent it.

Now, put away the cold water. Remove one monkey from the cage and
replace it with a new monkey. The new monkey sees the banana and
attempts to climb the stairs. To his shock, ALL of the other monkeys
beat the crap out of him. After another attempt and attack, he knows
that if he tries to climb the stairs he will be assaulted.

Next, remove another of the original four monkeys, replacing it with a
new monkey. The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The
previous newcomer takes part in the punishment - with enthusiasm -
because he is now part of the "team."

Then, replace a third original monkey with a new monkey, followed by
the fourth. Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs, he is
attacked.

Now, the monkeys that are beating him up have no idea why they were
not permitted to climb the stairs.

Neither do they know why they are participating in the beating of the
newest monkey. Having replaced all of the original monkeys, none of
the remaining monkeys will have ever been sprayed with cold water.

Nevertheless, not one of the monkeys will try to climb the stairway
for the Banana.

Why, you ask? Because in their minds, that is the way it has always
been!

This is how today's House and Senate operates, and this Is why from
time to time, ALL of the monkeys need to be REPLACED AT THE SAME
TIME!

DISCLAIMER: This is meant as no disrespect to monkeys.
