Actually, the pigs lives in an egalitarian society. All three had access to straw, sticks, and bricks. Unfortunately, there was no sort of meritocracy involved until the wolf came along. The stupid pigs were allowed to do as they wished. No building codes, and no one wanted to “dwelling-shame” them.
Well with infinite access to resources the pigs should have been stockpiling and starting to build businesses in the expectation that they would have needed to protect their property and could have hired a bigger, badder wolf at an acceptable market rate to ensure a minimal loss
/s in case that wasn’t clear
Ergo: there were no genders and no one was allowed to gender-shame them into normalcy.
The cartoon that I saw showed the first 2 pigs dancing and goofing around after they quickly built their houses, while the third pig continued working on his brick house. I always thought the moral was a simple “work now, play later”.
The 4th pig built his house from wolf skulls, significantly less practical but it does send a fucking message.
I don’t remember any of the versions of this story involving money.
Nobody ever mentioned where the materials came from, it was just two dumbasses who decided to build their houses out of inferior materials
No no you don’t understand. Every children’s story is about beating your competition in the market and how regulation doesn’t actually support competition because it’s on you to analyze and prepare for market forces. Also my billion dollar vehicle company is failing because I didn’t properly prepare, I’m gonna need a major government bailout
