    Change of Horse

    Young Chuck in Montana bought a horse from a farmer for $100. The farmer
    agreed to deliver the horse the next day.

    The next day the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry son, but I have some bad
    news... the horse died."

    Chuck replied, "Well, then just give me my money back."

    The farmer said, "Can't do that. I went and spent it already."

    Chuck said, "Ok, then, just bring me the dead horse."

    The farmer asked, "What ya gonna do with him?"

    Chuck said, "I'm going to raffle him off."

    The farmer said, "You can't raffle off a dead horse!"

    Chuck said, "Sure I can, Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead."

    A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked, "What happened with
    that dead horse?"

    Chuck said, "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece
    and made a profit of $998."

    The farmer said, "Didn't anyone complain?"

    Chuck said, "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back."

    Chuck grew up and now works for the government. He's the one who figured
    out how this "bail-out" is going to work

    Re: Change of Horse

    Sounds about right to me. The government has to be using new math. 1+1+3-17 = 2.5 million jobs at no cost to you or me. Only those making over $250,000 will pay. They will be punished (taxed at a higher rate) for working hard and succeeding. Had they not succeeded the cronic poor would be rich and they could then take care of those who work.
