Keynesian Economics, explained

A parable:

Krugman and Bernanke are walking down the street and see a pile of dog s***. Bernanke says “I’ll give you twenty thousand dollars to eat that pile of s***.” Krugman does it, gets paid, and they keep walking. After a while they see another pile of s*** on the road. Seeing an opportunity for revenge, Krugman says “Tell you what, I’ll give YOU twenty grand to eat that pile of s***.”
