A SPANISH CORPORATON
You have two bulls.
You make them stampede through your city for fun.
You decide to first have siesta and then count the dead tourists later.

A WELSH CORPORATION
You have two sheep.
The right one looks rather cute …

REPUBLIC PARTY MEMBER
You have two cows, your neighbor has none.
You feel guilty and sell one to the neighbor for half price.
You regret it later and charge him for the water that flows through your land to the neighbor’s land.
You don’t feel guilty at all.

DEMOCRATIC PARTY MEMBER
You have two cows, your neighbor has none.
You feel guilty and elect someone to put a new tax on cows.
You have to sell one cow to pay the tax.
The government buys a cow from the tax income and gives it to the neighbor.
You don’t feel guilty anymore.

LIBERAL PARTY MEMBER
You have two cows, your neighbor has none.
So what ?

NATIVE AMERICAN CAPITALISM
You have 2 cows.
People from another country come and take your cows and force you to do slave labor and give most of your population diseases thus slowly killing them off.
Those that live are forced to live on specific plots of land owned by the government.
Then the government feels bad and gives you rights to a large casino. You become rich and retire peacefully.

The Papua New Guinean Corporation
You have two cows.Your in-laws kills one and distribute it amongst their extended family. You sell the other one for the price of a carton of beer. Of the 24 bottles in the carton, you only drink 4, while ur parasitic brothers in-law drinks the rest with your buddies.In your case it seemed unfair, so you take your in-laws to court. The Judge would formally welcome you again to the country and add “Expect the unexpected Son”.
