The official looked it up and consulted with the other officials and said "Yes it is, but you can't move it." Tiger looked to the crowd and yelled "That rock is a movable object." Four guys came out of the gallery, picked up the rock and moved it out of the way. You get what I'm saying?    |
Yes, yes I do.
It is a social commentary describing the relationship between the rich, the worker/poor, and the law/government. In this metaphor, the law (official) is describing that there standards and practices regarding the treatment of the ordinary worker (the rock) that need to be followed however inconvenient it may be for those at the top. Despite this, the rich (Tiger) is able to exploit a loophole and was able to use force to achieve what they want and the worker is powerless to resist.
