The $100 Bill
It's a slow day in the small town of Pumphandle and the streets are
deserted.
Times are tough, everybody is in debt, and everybody is living on credit.
A tourist visiting the area drives through town, stops at the motel, and
lays a $100 bill on the desk saying he wants to inspect the rooms upstairs
to pick one for the night.
As soon as he walks upstairs, the motel owner grabs the bill and runs next door to pay his debt to the butcher.
(STAY ALERT now and pay attention!)
The butcher takes the $100 and runs down the street to retire his debt to
the pig farmer.
The pig farmer takes the $100 and heads off to pay his bill to his
supplier, the Co-op.
The guy at the Co-op takes the $100 and runs to pay his debt to the local prostitute, who has also been facing hard times and has had to offer her "services" on credit.
The hooker rushes to the hotel and pays off her room bill with the hotel Owner.
The hotel proprietor then places the $100 back on the counter so the
traveler will not suspect anything!
At that moment the traveler comes down the stairs, states that the rooms
are not satisfactory, picks up the $100 bill and leaves.
No one produced anything. No one earned anything. However, the whole town
now thinks that they are out of debt and there is a false atmosphere of optimism.
- -And that, my friends, is how a "government spending package" works!
That reminds me of how blacks whine about the "good old days" when "a dollar that comes into the black community stays in the black community." Thanks to "integration", they now bitch about how "a dollar that comes in bounces back out."(!). Welcome to the "economic mainstream," Dashawn.

Note "Comments turned off." <snicker>
A family decides to shop at only black-owned places for a year and even in Chicago it's almost impossible. They mention some saying that's known in the black community about how in non-black shops "the ice is colder" meaning
most blacks know they're going to get the shaft if they buy from another
black. Could it be because blacks are natural-born thieves? If all blacks
did this, that would mean NO blacks in White-owned businesses. Imagine
going to your favorite restaurant and never ever seeing a spook in there
again!
