The economy is so bad that I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail.

I ordered a burger at McDonald's, and the kid behind the counter asked, "Can
you afford fries with that?"

If the bank returns your check marked "insufficient funds" you have to call
them and ask if they mean you or them .

Hot Wheels and Matchbox stocks are trading higher than GM.

Burger King is selling the 1/4 'ouncer'.

Parents in Beverly Hills and Malibu are firing their nannies and learning their
childrens' names.

**** Cheney took his stockbroker hunting.

BP Oil laid off 25 Congressmen.

Congress says they are looking into the Bernard Madoff scandal. Oh Great!! The
guy who made $50 Billion disappear is being investigated by the people who made
$1.5 Trillion disappear!

I was so depressed last night thinking about the economy, wars, jobs, my
savings, Social Security, retirement funds, and our bleak future, that I called
the Suicide Lifeline and was connected to a call center in Pakistan. When I
told them I was suicidal, they got all excited, and asked if I could drive a
truck.

Good ones all, thanks for starting the thread Pachy,

Below is a link to a humorous take on the fundemental arguements between legendary economists John Maynard Keynes and Austrian School Founder Sir Frederick Hayek, their therories broken down in a Rap video, with actual economist playing each part. It is very clever and delivers a great economics lesson for an average person to follow

It is very funny

I'm also laughing because the filter obliterated VP Cheney's first name in the OP.

A similar thing happened on another site when I made reference to a famous actor with the last name of Van Dyke, who has the same first name as VP Cheney. Their filter accepted his first name, but asterisked "Dyke."

But to contribute:
