How the US-Bailout Works
Young Chuck moved to Texas and bought a donkey from a farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day. The next day he drove up and said, "Sorry son, but I have some bad news, the donkey died." Chuck: "Well, then just give me my money back." Farmer: "Can't do that. I went and spent it already." Chuck: "Ok, then, just bring me the dead donkey." Farmer: "What ya gonna do with him?" Chuck: "I'm going to raffle him off." Farmer: "You can't raffle off a dead donkey!" Chuck: "Sure I can, watch me! I just won't tell anybody he's dead." A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck. Farmer: "What happened with that dead donkey?" Chuck: "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $998." Farmer: "Didn't anyone complain?" Chuck: "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back." Chuck now works for Goldman Sachs ------------- Kismet Domino: Faith/Courage/Liberty/Abundance/Selfishness/Immorality/Apathy/Bondage or extinction. |
