extreme and even ridiculous. For example, children are seeing a doctor every day, whether they are sick or not,

but not attending school. People are having cosmetic surgery on every part of their bodies, but no high school

or college education exists. Now imagine that some of these resources are diverted from healthcare to

education, so that the economy is at point B instead of point A. Diverting some resources away from A to B

causes relatively little reduction in health because the last few marginal dollars going into healthcare services

are not producing much additional gain in health. However, putting those marginal dollars into education,

which is completely without resources at point A, can produce relatively large gains. For this reason, the shape

of the PPF from A to B is relatively flat, representing a relatively small drop-off in health and a relatively large

gain in education.
