Two economists are walking in the park. The first economist sees a pile
of dog shit and says to the other, “I’ll pay you $50 to eat that dog
shit.” So he does and gets paid $50. Later on, the second economist sees
a pile of dog shit and says to the first, “I’ll pay you $50 to eat that
pile of dog shit.” So he does and gets paid $50.
The first economist says, “I can’t help but feel we just ate dog
shit for nothing.” “Nonsense,” says the second economist, “We just
contributed $100 to the economy.”
