fwo economists are walking in a forest when they
come across a pile of shit.
The first economist says to the other "I'll pay you
$100 to eat that pile of shit." The second economist
takes the $100 and eats the pile of shit.
They continue walking until they come across a
second pile of shit. The second economist turns to
the first and says "Ill pay you $100 to eat that pile
of shit." The first economist takes the $100 and eats
a pile of shit.
Walking a little more, the first economist looks at the
second and says, "You know, I gave you $100 to eat
shit, then you gave me back the same $100 to eat
shit. I can't help but feel like we both just ate shit
for nothing."
"That's not true", responded the second economist.
"We increased the GDP by $200!"

There's the "shit-eater loophole" so they don't have to.
