Well, I think it’s funny


A multi-level cartoon.  

The Aussie dollar is over parity with US dollar; bananas are as rare as hens’ teeth thanks to the floods and cyclone, and in the early ’90s Paul Keating (PM) warned that we were in danger of becoming a banana republic.

  1. The three currencies I use the most are US dollars, Australian dollars, and British pounds. The weaker the US dollar is, the worse off I am as I am obliged to pay a number of my sellers in those other currencies.
    That said, I think you’re under-stating the value of the Australian banana.

  2. Yup! That’s funny. When Zangada and I lived in Brisbane we had UK salaries to pay for Aussie lifestyles and thus we lived very high on the hog.
