长安建城之初,假如有人在路上拣到了铜钱,就把它交给领导,领导上再设法交还给丢钱的人。令人遗憾的是虽然人人拾金不昧,但是铜钱的总数也不会增多,大伙还是那么穷。既然是那么的穷,所以丢钱的事也很少发生。后来领导上又规定,一枚铜钱经过了一次拾金不昧,就在上面打一个钢印,可以当两枚花。这使大伙在路上故意抛撒铜钱,长安市上的钱很快都打满了钢印,造成了严重的通货膨胀。不管打不打钢印,铜钱是一文不值了。
笑死了,想起了 The Dilbert Principle 里的这段:
A manager wants to find and fix software bugs more quickly. He offers an incentive plan: $20 for each bug the Quality Assurance people find and \$20 for each bug the programmers fix. (These are the same programmers who create the bugs.) Result: An under- ground economy in "bugs" springs up instantly. The plan is rethought after one employee nets \$1,700 the first week.
