looking further into the website there was this cartoon, which confuses me:
The Graph go down, its labeled as being a projection of future deficits. which means the losses will be lower. Avoidance of a loss is equatable with gaining of a win. but the guys are drawn as stupid and are obviously for nuclear power, which statistically speaking isn't quite profitable.
So are they just stupid for wanting to make profits off of nuclear power and investing into the economy? Or did someone make such a basic mistake that it is questionable whether they should be trusted in their judgement of other issues?
The budget deficit has been reducing over time under the current government, the man promoting nuclear is Dutton the opposition leader, his plans for nuclear power are being criticized as expensive, he is being portrayed as stupid in promoting nuclear which would reverse the trend of reducing deficits.
It's a bit convoluted and not particularly funny but it does make sense.

It's not that bad... Though without the nazi salute context I'm not sure I'd figure out who it is without at least a couple of guesses...
