I would see the ending as a tax on the oasis. That would be the real
punishment.

Subject: [Libertarian] now that is funny
A modern day cowboy has spent many days crossing the desert without water.
His horse has already died of thirst.
He's crawling through the sand,certain that he has breathed his last, when
all of a sudden, he sees an object sticking out of the sand several yards
ahead of him.
He crawls to the object, pulls it out of the sand, and discovers what looks
to be an old brief case.
He opens it and out pops a genie. But this is no ordinary genie.
She is wearing an IRS ID badge and a dull grey dress. There's a calculator
in her pocketbook. She has a pencil tucked behind one ear.
"Well, cowboy," says the genie... "You know how I work. You have three
wishes."
"I'm not falling for this." Says the man. "I'm not going to trust an IRS
genie."
"What do you have to lose? You've got no transportation, and it looks like
you're a goner anyway!"
The man thinks about this for a minute, and decides that the genie is
right.
"OK, I wish I were in a lush oasis with plenty of food and drink."
***POOF***
The cowboy finds himself in the most beautiful oasis he has ever seen.
And he is surrounded with jugs of wine and platters of delicacies.
"OK, cowpoke, what's your second wish."
"My second wish is that I were rich beyond my wildest dreams." ***POOF***
The man finds himself surrounded by treasure chests filled with rare gold
coins and precious gems.
"OK, cowpuncher, you have just one more wish. Better make it a good one!"
After thinking for a few minutes, the man says.. "I wish that no matter
where I go, beautiful women will want and need me." ***POOF***
He is turned into a tampon.
The moral of the story: If the government offers you anything, there's
going to be a string attached.
