Bill Explained


Shortly after class, student Slomo approached his Economics professor , professor Grabbit, and said , "Professor , I don't understand this stimulus bill. Can you explain it to me?" The professor replied, "I don't have time right now, but if you come over to my house on Saturday and help me with my weekend project, I'll be glad to explain it to you." The student agreed.

At the agreed-upon time, student Slomo showed up at the professor's house. The professor stated that the weekend project involved his backyard pool. They both went out back to the pool, and Grabbit handed the student a bucket. Demonstrating with his own bucket, the professor said, "First, go over to the deep end, and fill your bucket with as much water as you can." The student did as he was instructed. Professor Grabbit then continued, "Now let's drain some of this water out of my pool , go next door to Sam's pool , and take some water from his pool and bring it here . Mine is chlorinated , and Sam's water is purified in that fabulous , new oxygenated , chemical-free method . Sam's is better water . We all deserve clean water to swim in . Let's get some of Sam's . You know - hope and change ."
Slomo shrugged , "Errrrrrm , ok " and did as asked . There was a "NO TRESPASSING . Private Property" sign on the neighbor's property , and professor Grabbit instructed that this did not matter , as chemical-free water was needed in his own pool . "Now follow me over to the shallow end of my pool , and then dump all the water from your bucket into it ", instructed the professor . Slomo was naturally confused, but did as he was told. The professor then explained that they were going to do this many more times , and began walking back to the deep end of the pool. Sam next door would need to pay to re-fill his own pool later , and would probably try to sue the professor later, for running up Sam's water bill . But since the professor knew the local Judges very well, and had helped campaign for the Judges on the local benches, Professor Grabbit could rely on the Judges to throw Sam's lawsuit out of court.

The confused student asked, "Excuse me, but why are we doing this?" The professor matter-of-factly stated that he was trying to make the shallow end much deeper, and the water much better . The student didn't think the economics professor was serious, but figured that he would find out the real story soon enough. However, after the 8th or 9th trip between the shallow end and the deep end, from Sam's pool to Grabbit's pool , the student became worried that his Economics professor had lost it. Slomo finally blurted out, "All we're doing is wasting valuable time and effort on an unproductive pursuit. Even worse, when this process is all over (and there's absolutely no way to know when that might be), everything will be exactly the same as before, so all we'll really have accomplished is the complete waste of both our time and our efforts which, if otherwise directed, might have had a chance of yielding a productive result! Not only that , but what about the questions of trespass and theft ?

The professor put down his bucket and replied with a smile, "Congratulations. You now understand the 2009 Stimulus Bill . "
