RICARDO STEINBRUCH: Economics by a professor - Brilliant and yet so Simple Economics Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this... The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing. The fifth would pay $1. The sixth would pay $3. The seventh would pay $7.. The eighth would pay $12. The ninth would pay $18. The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59. So, that's what they decided to do. The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve ball. "Since you are all such good customers," he said, "I'm going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20.". Drinks for the ten men would now cost just $80. The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes. So the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other s...

Berikut ialah beberapa perkara pelik yg disebut oleh khatib di atas mimbar: 1. Di sebuah mesjid di Negeri Sembilan, "Oleh kerana perniagaan mendatangkan 9/10 daripada keuntungan maka sidang Jumaat sekalian, marilah kita jadikan perniagaan sbg satu 'mutafancirin' ". Saya terkejut. Apa tu mutafancirin? Melayu bukan Arab pun bukan. Setelah disemak teks khutbah rupa2nya 'mata pencarian.' "متڤنچرين" 2. Di sebuah mesjid di Kulim, Kedah, "...dihalalkan kita umat Islam memakan kuda, dan diharamkanNya kita memakan keladi...". Dekat nk pengsan makmum sbb ada yg baru lepas mkn sayur keladi. Setelah disemak teks khutbah rupa2nya 'keldai'. Selepas khutbah ini lebih sebulan orang Kulim tak mkn keladi sbb difatwakan haram. "كلدي" 3. Di sebuah mesjid di Perak, "...maka 'birobbikum' itu adalah sunah kerana diriwayatkan bahawa Nabi pun 'birobbikum'...". Semua makmum tak faham termasuk tok imam dan tok bilal. Bila...

An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had recently  failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer. The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan".. All grades will be averaged and everyone will receive the same grade so no one will fail and no one will receive an A.... (substituting grades for dollars - something closer to home and more readily understood by all). After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little. The second test average was a D! No one was happy. When ...

1-Auto repair shops will disappear. 2-A petrol/diesel engine has 20,000 individual parts. An electrical motor has 20. Electric cars are sold with lifetime guarantees and are only repaired by dealers. It takes only 10 minutes to remove and replace an electric motor. 3-Faulty electric motors are not repaired in the dealership but are sent to a regional repair shop that repairs them with robots. 4-Your electric motor malfunction light goes on, so you drive up to what looks like a car wash, and your car is towed through while you have a cup of coffee and out comes your car with a new electric motor! 5-Petrol pumps will go away. 6-Street corners will have meters that dispense electricity.  Companies will install electrical recharging stations; in fact, they’ve already started in the developed world. 7-Smart major auto manufacturers have already designated money to start building new plants that only build electric cars. 8-Coal industries will go away. Gasoline/oil companies will go awa...

Can a history teacher explain this ...!!! Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress  1846. John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946. Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860. John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960. Both were particularly concerned with civil rights. Both their wives lost a child while living in the White House. Both Presidents were shot on a Friday. Both Presidents were shot in the head. Now it gets really weird. Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy. Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln. Both were assassinated by Southerners. Both were succeeded by Southerners The successors of both Presidents are named Johnson. Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808. Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908. John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839. Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939. Both assassins were known by their three names. Both names are composed of fifteen letters. Now ...

This actually took place in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA. A lawyer purchased a box of very rare and expensive cigars, then  insured them against, among other things, loss due to fire. Within a month, having smoked his entire stockpile of these great   cigars, the lawyer filed a claim against the insurance company. In his claim, the lawyer stated the cigars were lost 'in a series of   small fires.' The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason, that   the man had consumed the cigars in the normal fashion. The lawyer sued and WON!  (Stay with me.) Delivering the ruling, the judge agreed with the insurance company that   the claim was frivolous. The judge stated nevertheless, that the lawyer  held a policy from the company, in which it had warranted that the  cigars were insurable and also guaranteed that it would insure them against fire, without defining what is considered to be unacceptable  'fire' and ...
