An Italian politician invites his Greek politician friend over for a visit. The Greek pulls up in front of an elegant manor house and is welcomed by the staff. He walks in through a foyer with marble floors and a huge marble staircase with ornamental banisters and a crystal chandelier. They walk through to a lovely veranda overlooking the river, and sit down to eat.
The Greek is very impressed with everything and asks “How did you manage to get this place?” The Italian points to a shoddy concrete bridge over the river and says “See that bridge over there? It was supposed to be a steel suspension bridge, but we found a lower bidder to build that one instead, and with all the extra money I was able to buy this!” The Greek compliments his friend on the house, they finish a delicious meal while talking about various politics, and the next day they part ways.
Several months later the Greek invites the Italian over. The Italian arrives at an enormous estate with a marble facade. He walks in to see an even bigger staircase, and a banister and chandelier that are trimmed in 24 karat gold! They sit down for a meal on a huge terrace with a staggering view of the harbor. The Italian is completely blown away, so he asks his friend “How on earth did you afford this place? It’s fantastic!” The Greek says “Well, see that bridge over there?” The Italian says “What bridge?”
