Og the Caveman - PTIII

Grok doesn’t like the hard work of swinging the rock. He likes the food but he doesn’t like the work. After a few days of swinging the rock, he goes back to basic hunter-gatherer status. Og continues to work hard and bring a full harvest each day. He also has learned how to use the yams and the skin bag to trap small animals for roasting.

Grok grows increasingly discontent. He knows why Og is successful, but he’s still unhappy. He wants the fruits of success but he doesn’t want to work for them. (The founding member of the modern Democrat Party) One evening as Og returns with his harvest Grok takes it from him by force. (A thug just like all the other redistributionists) Og puts up vicious resistance but is finally subdued and takes quarter.

Grok brings the harvest back to the cave and is given the royal treatment. (Like Bill Clinton - rich as Midas - from other's labors) Og watches with contempt as the fruits of his labor are used to take his luxurious life away from him. He resolves to never let it happen again. The next morning, he goes out and harvests a little food and eats it. He sleeps for a while and then digs a few more yams and eats them. He goes back to the cave with an empty bag his club in his hand.

Grok is waiting at the cave and is confounded by the empty bag. The tribe looks suspiciously at Og and Grok. There is no large dinner to be shared tonight. Og gestures that he will not dig food for them anymore. He gestures that he wants two males to go with him the next day and they will dig for the tribe. (First Small Business Owner, First Employees) He will show them where and how to dig and hunt meat. He gestures that he will no longer share food with Grok. (Efforts to marginalize the criminal element) Grok must find his own food. (First Convict Rehabilitation Program)

Grok is enraged and attacks. Og stands his ground and cocks back with the club. (2nd Amendment) He waits until Grok is in range and swings as hard as he can. (Self-defense) In one swing, Groks appetite and rage are no longer an issue. (Capital/Corporal Punishment) Grok’s lifeless body falls to the ground. The same male that once smacked Grok's skull with a stone once pokes the dead body with a stick to confirm his suspicions.(Really Most Sincerely Dead)

Og stands over the body with defiance. It was not what he wanted. What he wanted was to be able to have sanctity of life and property. But his natural ability to compete for survival and willingness to confront aggression identified him as a force to be reckoned with and made him stand out as a natural leader. By action and public opinion, he has just been made chief benefactor and chief of the tribe.
