Spend, not save.!

Today, a country’s economy is judged by the spending it’s citizens indulge in and not in the savings they have, I realized this as the doorbell rang and two tough looking men stood at my doorstep, "Recovery agents?" I asked fearfully, "but I haven't taken a loan, nor do I have a credit card!"
"We know that!" said the man with stubble, "we also know you've got a savings account."
"And you haven't spent anything from it for the last week!" said the second man.
"Nine days!" said the first man with stubble.
"Thank you!" I said, "You've come to give me an award?"
"You have to come with us.."
"To the bank!" completed the man with stubble.
"Why?" I asked.
"To withdraw money!"
"And spend!" said the man with stubble.
"But I don't want to spend!" I said, "I don't need anything at the moment!"
"What's that?"
"My TV!"
"How old?"
"Five years!"
"Confiscate it!" said the man with stubble and I watched helplessly as the man without stubble took my TV to a truck outside.
"And that?"
"Is my bed!"
"How old?"
"Ten!" I said, "I still remember the day I got it made, its like yesterday!"
"Take it!" said the man with the stubble to the man without.
"Now you can come to the bank.."
"And take out money for a new TV and new bed!"
"I will go to the police!" I shouted.
"We've brought the police!" said the man with the stubble as a policeman entered.
"Sir," said the policeman looking at me severely, "This is the first warning, next time we will have to arrest you for unpatriotic behavior!"
"We have records officer!" said the man with the stubble, opening sheaves of Xeroxed paper, "He has not spent on anything big for over a year, the last time he spent anything was on a bread knife!"
"The old one broke!" I explained.
"Are you hoping the country's economy will collapse?" asked the policeman, "by not spending you are working against the state!" "I am sorry!" I said.
"Now come to the bank and withdraw money!" said the man with the stubble.
"It's okay!" I said, "I don't need a TV and I'll sleep on the floor!" "You were warned!" said the policeman as he slipped a pair of handcuffs on my wrists.
"Six months rigorous imprisonment!" said the judge, "society doesn't need people like you outside! We need citizens in the.."
"Malls!"
"And buying things online!" shouted the man with the stubble and the judge nodded his head in agreement as they led me away.
