Economic problem solved instantly!

Dear Mr. Darling,

Please find below my suggestion for fixing Britain's economy.

Instead of giving billions of pounds to banks that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan.

You can call it the Patriotic Retirement Plan:

There are about 20 million people over 50 in the work force. Pay them £1 million apiece severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:

1) They MUST retire. Twenty million job openings - Unemployment fixed

2) They MUST buy a new British car. Twenty million cars ordered - Auto Industry fixed

3) They MUST either buy a house or pay off their mortgage - Housing Crisis fixed

4) They MUST send their kids to school/college/university - Crime rate fixed

5) They MUST buy £50 of alcohol/tobacco a week .....and there's your money back in duty/tax etc

It can't get any easier than that!

Lol, I think you should send it to him

Haha.... So funny yet so right!

You know what????
that makes so much sense, it could work

Ha, but I would be really peeved if I was someone over 50 who had already retired and was living on a poxy little pension but didn't get a million because I had already retired and left a job for someone to fill!
