A foolish king with his rubbish collector

Once upon a time somewhere in the northern earth, there was a foolish king, why people called him as a foolish king, because he did not love and care for his people, naturally the people also dislike the king, but the king thought the people like him very much. He still walked head up, hand up, leg up, and there the people pretended to salute him but with hates and dislike.

One of his foolish thinking was, he appointed a rubbish collector to be his head man, because the rubbish collector had found a great piece of gold in some rubbishes, and he presented it to the king, the king delighted in that gigantic piece of gold and so the king promoted the rubbish collector to be the head man in his kingdom.

The people disliked the rubbish collector, because the rubbish collector smelled like rubbish, he never take any shower, he do nothing for the people, daily he went out to collect rubbishes for himself, he done this often, more than taking care of his people and looking after the people welfare. He loved the rubbishes and collected them in one of the bank in the country. Some one knew about that.

The king was very happy every day in looking at the great piece of gold he received from the rubbish collector, and the king polishes that piece of gold every day and sleep and eat next to the gold, he forgot his people who were suffering.

The people was very frustrated and they became angry, they protested to the king and the rubbish collector, but they were not listened, so the people reacted in revenge, they threw rubbish every where they went, all towns, villages, buildings, roads, rivers, hills, mountains, trees, cars, schools, farms, shopping centre, malls and halls, markets, everywhere, any time, days and nights, they threw out rubbishes, out door, in the open spaces, and the country became very dirty and smelly, and the king did not know what happened to his kingdom, and the rubbish collectors were very delighted in seeing gold everywhere he went..he collected more and more rubbishes this time.

Until one day, the rubbishes choked the rivers, roads, and mountains, and all cars, lorries, and buses cannot run, and the fishes, the birds died, and and the animals and people were starved to death, and the king started to smell something bad from his palace, and he went out to see his kingdom, lo, and behold, his kingdom, had become a rubbish throwing country...and he saw some one who was waring a king's costume with armies walking by the roadside and people bow down to him, and they called him king. And the real king was very angry, why some one else behave like him as a king in time like this, and he went to check, and lo and behold, the fake king was actually the rubbish collector whom he had appointed, and the king regretted in his choice of choosing a rubbish collector to be the head man. The rubbish collector had taken over the country intentionally.

The king went home and repented from his mistake, and he angrily threw the piece of gold out of the palace, and he summoned the rubbish collector to the palace, and he wanted to put him into the jail, but the rubbish collector fought an war with the king, at last after many tussles, the rubbish collector was killed, and the king appointed another good, wise and sound minded man to be the head man. This wise man went out to serve the people wisely, and he cleanses the country with justice and right, and the country condition became better and better, and so the story not ended here, the people started to respect the king, because the king had awaken from a deep sleep, in appointing a good leader to help them, and the people loved the king again, because the people sees the king loved them. The wise head man lived happily with the people, and the kingdom became stronger and stronger, and so they became richer and richer, and many people came to work and live among them, at last the country became famous and great, in creating a pleasant and healthy society, the people was happy living in a clean and protected environment.

What kind of mind do the leaders have, have you heard of this saying "rubbish in rubbish out!"

I took in some rubbish, in writing this!
