Having re-read Animal Farm, it occurred to me that it's actually an allegory about Bitcoin!  Help me complete the correspondence table:


Snowball       = Satoshi
Napoleon       = Gavin
The Windmill   = Bitcoin-Qt source code
Attack dogs    = THE bitcoin Foundation's lobbyists and lawyers.
Farmer Jones   = Ben Bernanke
Squealer       = Erik Voorhees
Old Major      = Diffie + Merkle
Boxer          = all code contributors who aren't "CORE"
Benjamin       =
Crow           = Luke Dashjr
The cat        = Zhoutong
The Sheep      = bitcointalk.org
Molly          = Bruce Wagner?
The hens       = miners?
Muriel         =


Unallocated: FINCEN, MtGox/Karpeles, Bill Cosby, Butterfly Labs.

Lol! This is great. I dont see how the similarity is between animal farm and bitcoin is I mean dont they become communists in Animal Farm?
