C'era un paese dove erano tutti ladri.
La notte ogni abitante emerged, with pick and lantern, and went to burgle the house of a neighbor. Came home at dawn, loading, and found the house burglarized.
So everyone lived in harmony and without damage, because the one stealing the other, and this in another, and so on, until you steal one who stole the last one first. The trade in that country are engaged only in the form of cheating and by those who sold and bought by those. The government was a criminal at the expense of his subjects, and subjects for their part only paid attention to defraud the government. So life went on without stumbling, and there were neither rich nor poor.
Now, do not know how it happened that the country was deemed to be a honest man. At night, rather than come up with a sack and a lantern, sat at home smoking and reading novels.
the robbers came, they saw the light on and not going up.
This fact lasted for a bit, then you make him understand that if he wanted to live and do nothing, it was not a good reason not to leave it to others. Every night he went home, had a family that did not eat the next day.
Given these reasons, the honest man could not resist. He also took him to go out at night to return at dawn, but there was a steal. Was honest, there was nothing to do. He went to the bridge and was about to go see the water below. He returned home and was robbed.
In less than a week man honest, he found himself penniless, without anything to eat, with the house empty. But so far not bad, because it was his fault, it was unfortunate that in this way he was born to do it all change. Why did he steal everything and meanwhile did not steal anybody, so there was always someone coming home at dawn, the house was intact: the house that would rob him. The fact is that after a while those that were robbed were found to be richer than the others and not want to steal. And, moreover, those who came to steal honest man's house they found it always empty, so they became poor.
Meanwhile, those become rich also got into the habit of going the night on their toes, to see the water that went under. This increased the confusion, because there were many others who became rich and many others who became poor.
Now, the rich saw that night to go upon the deck, after a while 'would become poor. And they thought: - We pay the poor going to steal our behalf -. He did the contracts, wages were set, the percentages: of course they always thieves, and try to fool each other. But, as it happens, the rich got richer and the poor get poorer.
There were the rich so rich that they no longer need to steal to continue to be rich. But if you stop stealing became poor because the poor robbed them. Then they paid the poorest of the poor to defend their stuff from other poor, and so established the police, and they built prisons.
Thus, already a few years after the advent of the honest man, no longer spoke to rob or be robbed only the rich and poor, yet they were always all thieves.
of honest there was only this man, suffered and died of hunger.
