    You have two cows.

    You feel guilty for being successful.
    Instead of giving your neighbor one of your cows, you write to
    your congressman, demanding that he pass legislation for more
    government programs to help your neighbor get a cow. You hold a concert to raise
    awareness for cow-lessness. Barbara Streisand sings for the cow-less,
    who couldn't attend because ticket prices are so expensive that only
    people with 3 or 4 cows can afford to attend. You wear a ribbon that
    signifies that you care about cowless people, even though you really haven't
    done anything to help them at all.
