Answer to the GFC - what comes around goes around

In a small town on the south coast of France the holiday season is in full swing, but it is raining so there is not much business happening.

Everyone is in debt.

Luckily, a Russian tourist arrives in the foyer of the small local hotel. He asks for a room and puts a $100 note on the reception counter, takes the key and goes to inspect the room located up the stairs on the 3rd floor.

The hotel owner takes the banknote in a hurry and rushes to his meat supplier to whom he owes the $100.

The butcher takes the money and races to his supplier to pay his debt.

The wholesaler rushes to the farmer to pay $100 for the pigs he purchased some time ago.

The farmer triumphantly gives the $100 note to a local prostitute who gave him her services on credit.

The prostitute goes quickly to the hotel, as she was owing the hotel $100 for her hourly room use to entertain clients.

At that moment, the rich Russian is coming down to reception. He informs the hotel owner that the proposed room is unsatisfactory. He takes back his $100 and departs.

There was no profit or income. But everyone no longer has any debt and the small townspeople look optimistically toward their future.

COULD THIS BE THE SOLUTION TO THE GLOBAL RECESSION ?
