Economics

A man saw his bus going so slowly that he decided to walk home.  On the way he met another man, a citizen of the Land of Fools.

"Ah, Foolslander!" he cried, "I'm saving a shilling by walking instead of traveling in that bus."

"You're a wasteful idiot," the Foolslander immediately replied.  "Having discovered such an important saving as that, you could have walked behind a taxi, and saved ten times as much!"
