follow this along carefully as there is amoral to the story at the end.....

The hotel proprietor takes the 100 dollar bill and runs to pay his debt to the butcher.

The butcher takes the 100 dollar bill, and runs to pay his debt to the hog farmer.

The hog farmer takes the 100 dollar bill, and runs to pay his debt to the supplier of his feed and fuel.

The supplier of feed and fuel takes the 100 dollar bill and runs to pay his debt to the town's prostitute that in these hard times, gave her "services" on credit.

The prostitute runs to the hotel, and pays off her debt with the 100 dollar bill to the hotel proprietor to pay for the rooms that she rented when she brought her clients there.

The hotel proprietor then lays the 100 dollar bill back on the counter so that the rich tourist will not suspect anything.

At that moment, the rich tourist comes down after inspecting the rooms, and takes his 100 dollar bill, after saying that he did not like any of the rooms, and leaves town.

No one earned anything. However, the whole town is now without debt, and looks to the future with a lot of optimism.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how the United States government is doing business today. ;)
 
Unfortunately someone forgot that the government takes it's cut in taxes at every transaction so the rich tourist winds up with only about half of what he started with! LOL Mike
 
The taxman is the only one who shows a profit or gain in any of those transactions.
Millions lost their jobs, millions more worry they'll loose their jobs, and Sarah Palin quit her job. That's the perfect candidate. LOL
 
I think it would be a lot simpler to make dollars out of rubber. Then they would stretch great!
