Investing in Australia, Coalition Style!


INVESTOR:  Hi!  I'm thinking of opening a solar PV production line in your country.  What sort of tax concessions can you offer?

COALITION: We will destroy you, burn down your factory, and salt the ground it stood on so nothing will ever grow there again.

INVESTOR:  Well then, I'll make the counter offer of, you destroy me, burn my factory down, but only sugar the ground it stood on so things will grow there after the ants clear away the sugar.

COALITION:  We will destroy you, burn down your factory, and use the ground it stood on as a repository for fetid dingo kidneys.

INVESTOR:  That's a better offer than I expected, so I'm happy with that.  But you do remember that you signed a piece of paper that lets foreign investors sue your butts off, right?  Pretty stupid move, guys.

COALITION:  What?  Us stupid?  That's unpossible!
