nacmacfeegle 0 #1 March 19, 2002 Traditional CapitalismYou have two cows.You sell one and buy a bull.Your herd multiplies, and the economy grows. You sell them and retire on the income.Enron Venture CapitalismYou have two cows.You sell three of them to your publicly listed company, using letters of credit opened by your brother-in-law at the bank, then execute a debt/equity swap with an associated general offer so that you get all four cows back, with a tax exemption for five cows. The milk rights of the six cows are transferred via an intermediary to a Cayman Island company secretly owned by the majority shareholder who sells the rights to all seven cows back to your listed company. The annual report says the company owns eight cows, with an option on one more.Sell one cow to buy a new president of the United States, leaving you with nine cows. No balance sheet provided with the release.The public buys your bull.AN AMERICAN CORPORATIONYou have two cows.You sell one, and force the other to produce the milk of four cows.You are surprised when the cow drops dead.A CANADIAN CORPORATIONYou have two cows.Your dairy operation is productive, and you sell 80% of the milk to the US market.The American government decides that you are taking advantage of federal subsidies to dump milk on the market below cost, and slaps you with 25% "countervailing" duties, to protect the interests of the above-mentioned American Corporation. Angered and enraged in typical polite Canadian fashion, you cheer on the Canadian hockey team to pound the USA team 5-2 and win Olympic gold.You let out a cheer, wave the Maple Leaf a bit, then apologize for the outburst and get back to milking your cows.A FRENCH CORPORATIONYou have two cows.You go on strike because you want three cows.A JAPANESE CORPORATIONYou have two cows.You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size of an ordinary cow and produce twenty times the milk. You then create clever cow cartoon images called Cowkimon and market them worldwide.A GERMAN CORPORATIONYou have two cows.You reengineer them so they live for 100 years, eat once a month, and milk themselves.A BRITISH CORPORATIONYou have two cows.Both are mad.AN ITALIAN CORPORATIONYou have two cows, but you don't know where they are.You break for lunch.A RUSSIAN CORPORATIONYou have two cows.You count them and learn you have five cows.You count them again and learn you have 42 cows.You count them again and learn you have 12 cows.You stop counting cows and open another bottle of vodka.A SWISS CORPORATIONYou have 5000 cows, none of which belong to you.You charge others for storing them.A HINDU CORPORATIONYou have two cows.You worship them.A CHINESE CORPORATIONYou have two cows.You have 300 people milking them. You claim full employment, high bovine productivity, and arrest the newsman who reported the numbers.AN ISRAELI CORPORATIONSo, there are these two Jewish cows, right? They open a milk factory, an ice cream store, and then sell the movie rights.They send their calves to Harvard to become doctors.So, who needs people?AN ARKANSAS CORPORATIONYou have two cows.That one on the left is kinda cute...It aint what you fly, its how you fly it!

billvon 3,089 #8 March 19, 2002 California power company cows - You have government regulation of milk prices. Then you "deregulate" and let the farmer charge grocery stores whatever they want, but grocery stores can only sell it for $1 a gallon. It takes farmers a few years to figure out that this means they can charge whatever they want, and they charge $100 a gallon. Then they discover that if they milk the cows less, people will pay even more for the milk! They produce less milk and charge even more. Grocery stores go bankrupt. Finally the government starts paying $100 for milk and selling it for $1 a gallon, "solving" the problem.Everyone blames the cows.-bill von Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
