Doctor of Economics

Text on the meme

any doctor here? I'm a doctor he's having a heart attack I'm a doctor of economics he's going to die impossible, that wouldn't be his self-interest

What it means

A woman asks whether there is a doctor while a man appears to suffer a heart attack. A suited man claims to be a doctor of economics, then dismisses the emergency because dying would not serve the victim’s self-interest. The joke mocks overly literal economic reasoning applied to an urgent medical situation.
