弗雷德里克·巴斯夏《经济诡辩》· Economic Sophisms · 投资
Now, it is very evident that M. Bugeaud's principle as a deputy is directly opposed to the principle on which he acts as an agriculturist. To act consistently, he should vote against all legislative restriction, or else import into his farming operations the principle which he proclaims from the tribune. We should then see him sow his corn in his most sterile fields, for in this way he would succeed in _working much to obtain little_. We should see him throwing aside the plough, since hand-culture would satisfy his double wish for dearer bread and more abundant labour.

白话
布若作为议员主张的原则,和他作为农民做事的原则正好相反。要一致,他要么投票反对一切立法限制,要么把议员那套搬进农场:故意在贫瘠地里撒种,好“多干活少收粮”;扔掉犁,用手工种地,这样面包更贵、劳动更多,正好满足他的双重愿望。巴斯夏用这个夸张画面说明:保护主义立法如果真按它的逻辑执行,就是逼人倒退到低效生产。
上下文
巴斯夏讽刺布若在议会主张高粮价、在农场却追求高效率,揭露保护主义立法与生产常识的自相矛盾。

你支持的规则,如果真按它的逻辑执行,会带来什么荒唐结果?
