Quote for the Day:

There is a joke about two junior economists finding dog shit during their walk. The first economist says to the second: “I pay you one million dollars if you eat up the dog shit”. The second economist does it. They keep walking until they find another dog shit. The second economist now says to the first: “I pay you one million dollars if you eat up that dog shit”. The first economist does it. They do not feel so well. None of them own one million dollars. So, they visit a senior economist to explain to them how to evaluate the situation. The senior economist exclaims: “These are wonderful news. You have just increased the GDP by two million dollars”.
