How to clear your debt in a tough economy - GoFuckYourself.com

It is the month of July, a resort town sits next to the shores of a lake. It is raining, and the little town looks totally deserted. It is tough times, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit.

Suddenly, a rich tourist comes to town.

He enters the only hotel, lays a 100 dollar bill on the reception counter, and goes to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one.

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 pig raiser.

The pig raiser 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 hooker 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.

very interesting but they could have done that without the hundred dollar bill. if you are owed 100 and owe a hundred, you have zero net worth. The story is amusing but shows nothing.

Why such a hardon for the US?

gnet · 07-15-2009, 07:15 PM

This only works if the hotel manager was owed $100.

Our problem is the "hotel manager" is owed a lot less than $100. Therefore, in the end, cannot clear his debt. Only some of it.

Does one need a hardon to make commentary on facts?

You certainly are allowed to make any comment you wish. But...I thought you were Canadian...whatever guy. Carry on. Enjoy your rant.

The day your country becomes an isolationist nation and stops exerting influence (both positive and negative) on neighbouring countries - is the day I'll withhold an opinion.

It'll coincide with monkeys flying out my arse.

11T?!?! If it's 11T we're doomed.. I don't follow any of it anymore because it makes me too fucking mad since I know what's really happening. But 11T?! No fucking way, I'll have a heart attack.

As far as this little story you've told.. what is this, the Dick Van Dyke show?
And it was only a dollar when I saw it on there.
Did that show really have Dick and Dyke in the name
Mary Tyler Moore was so fucking SEXY on that show.
Grr.
