I have an idea concerning those boats!!!Originally posted by vietvettwo:
As Minister of Finance and Justice I have an idea of how we can get the "seed" money we need to get this little idea off the ground.
If you've ever seen the movie The Mouse That Roared, you will understand the basic premise. In the movie, a tiny country is in financial trouble. They come up with a plan to "attack" the US, knowing they will lose, but then become eligible for foreign aid.
I propose we take the Tango and set sail for Miami. After attacking several jet skis, we surface and surrender. As part of the foreign aid package we ask for Interstate Highway funds (what the hell, they gave it to Hawaii). We could also declare ourselves some sort of indian tribe (The Fugarewe's comes to mind) and open a casino.
To keep the balance of payments in a favorable balance we can export sand. We get the left coast air heads to believe that our natural sand produces environmentally friendly sand paper.
We could probably also become a cruise ship destination port, but I am still working on a way to rip them off, oops, sorry, I mean a way to maximize their income potential.
W'ell use our very own DAPRO (Diplomatic and Press Relations Officer) Realjambo, to tell the cruise lines to come to our very "DEEP" natural harbour, and admire the beauty of our small nation, and when they get wrecked on the coral reef of our very shallow waters we get to:
1-salvage the ship
2-fill our hotels with a lot of gests that came at the height of the season so that the prices are offff course very high, but for a small emergency fee...(10 x normal price +50%) we will acomodate them
3-we charge a entry fee to country for they entered iligally
4-we fine the cruise lines for poluting the reef and scaring away the fish
5- we charge them the cost of the investigation, plus a small token amount of a couple of million for my new plane
6- we confiscate all booze on board and fine them for bootleging and smugling
im sure something else will come to mind...
