A Chinese Solution

I post this with a thought, is this likely to occur in a Western Civilised country like Australia.?
Or are our leaders too tied to the underbelly of big business.
Agreed it has obvious bad points, but you know it will likely succeed.

Sledgehammer policies to curb energy use....
Chinese leaders are unveiling campaign-style measures to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions, including simply closing companies that fall short.
"By the end of July, we will publish all failed corporations to the public," the Minister for Industry, Li Yizhong, told China Central Television.
"These corporations will be forced to shut down by the end of the third quarter."
