    I rarely turn on the TV but may have to start watching this show… I happened to catch it last night and they took a funny jab at the economy-stimulating tax rebate. Basically, since the tax rebate is $300, suddenly the cost of everything becomes $300 (the $1 store which becomes the $300 store) causing rampant inflation.

    Earth President Richard Nixon gives the riches away to the citizens of Earth in the form of a three hundred dollar tax rebate (in the form of the $300 “Tricky-Dick Fun Bill”). The Planet Express staff plot what they’re going to spend their money on. Leela plans to swim with a whale, while Fry decides to purchase (and drink) one hundred cups of coffee. Dr. Zoidberg sets off to live like a rich man. Scruffy the Janitor decides to get "one of them three hundred dollar haircuts", as (he removes his hat to reveal flattened hair) "this one’s lost its pizazz". Bender ponders buying one three hundred dollar hookerbot or three hundred one dollar hookerbots.

    One three hundred dollar hookerbot or three hundred dollar hookerbots? That’s a tough decision for even 30th century circuitry.

    Personally I would have gone for 300 one-dollar hookerbots…

    A 300 dollar hookerbot is classy
    3 one hundred dollar hookerbots is rockstar
    300 one dollar hookerbots is just sick! Man, get some counseling 😉
