Say What? Crocodile Dundee Hounded For Unpaid Australian Taxes?!
The Australian Taxation Office is after Crocodile Dundee for millions in unpaid taxes, and has forbidden him to leave the country until the debt is settled in full.
Say what? Dundee is singlehandedly responsible for bringing tens-of-millions, perhaps even hundreds-of-millions, into the coffers of the Australian national treasury, and for, no matter how implausible, making Australia and Australians look attractive to the rest of the world via his three Crocodile Dundee films and his many commercials on behalf of Australia and Australian-produced products. The bloody Australian government ought to be nothing but grateful to the man and declare him a national hero. Instead, they persecute (and might even prosecute) him.
Harrumph! Gross Impertinence! as Nigel Bruce's Dr. Watson would say.
