Lenin's Compassion

Year 1920. A cold winter day in Moscow.

Lenin is taking a stroll outside of Kremlin, when he notices a small boy sitting on the sidewalk and crying.

- What's the problem, my dear boy? - asks Lenin.
- Because I lost the kopiyka I got from my parents to buy myself a bun. - the kid replied.

Lenin's golden heart started pounding with compassion. He took out a kopiyka from his own pocket and handed it to the crying boy.

- Here you go, my dear! Now you can go and buy yourself a bun.

The boy started crying even louder.

- What's wrong with you now? - asked Lenin.
- If I didn't lose the first kopiyka, I could buy 2 buns. - kid replied.
- You greedy little brat! - Lenin got furious.

Lenin was so angry at the child's rapacity, that he took the kopiyka away from him.

And his gloves.

And shoes.
