The one chat goes something like this?

Two economists are walking through a farm. One tells the other "hey if you eat some of that shit on the ground I'll give you $100". So the second guy does it, and the first one hands over the $100. A few minutes later they pass more shit, and the second guy says to the first guy "if you eat some of that shit I'll give you $100 too", so the second guy does it and gets his $100. After a while, the first guy says "wait, did we just eat shit for nothing? No one made any money" and the second guy replied "of course not, we added $200 to the GDP!"
