ORIGINAL VERSION:
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long,
building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances
and plays the summer away.

Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has
no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold


But everybody knows an ant, can't,
move a rubber tree plant.


But do you think the OP knows ants are members of a socialist commune?


No, were that true, ant's goods would have all been confiscated by now, and
sold it to the Chinese. He would be lucky if his remaining share would be
enough to keep an ant alive through the winter.
