The one(s) I heard where: COMMUNISM: You have two cows. The government takes both and gives you the milk it thinks you need. BUREAUCRACY: You have two cows.

Then it takes both, shoots one, milks the other and pours the milk down the drain. Then it requires you to fill out forms accounting for the missing cows.
