International corporations – Explained with cows

December 14th, 2008 No comments

AN AMERICAN CORPORATION: You 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 BRAZILIAN CORPORATION: You have two cows.  You enter into a partnership with an American corporation.  Soon you have 1000 cows and the American corporation declares bankruptcy.

A BRITISH CORPORATION: You have two cows.  They are mad.  They die. Pass the shepherd’s pie, please.

A CHINESE CORPORATION: You have two cows.  You have 300 people milking them. You claim full employment, high bovine productivity, and arrest the newsman who reported on them.

A FRENCH CORPORATION: You have two cows.  You go on strike because you want three cows.

A GERMAN CORPORATION: You have two cows.  You reengineer them so they live for 100 years, eat once a month, and milk themselves.

AN INDIAN CORPORATION: You have two cows.  You worship both of them.

AN ITALIAN CORPORATION: You have two cows, but you don’t know where they are. You break for lunch.

A JAPANESE CORPORATION: You 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 World-Wide.

A RUSSIAN CORPORATION: You 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 CORPORATION: You have 5000 cows, none of which belong to you. You charge others for storing them.
