So three economists are bear-hunting in the woods, right, and somehow they find themselves situated between a mother bear and her cubs. The mother bear charges.

The first economist aims his rifle, shoots, and misses the bear by three feet to the left. The second economist shoots, missing the bear by three feet to the right. As the bear continues to charge, the third economist stays perfectly still.

‘Shoot your gun!!’ the other two cry out.

‘There is no need. The bear is obviously dead.’
