Got this email the other day. Found it mildly amusing and in theory a good idea.

Quote:
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) Buy £50 of alcohol / tobacco a week there's your money back in duty
/ tax etc

It can't get any easier than that!

P.S. If more money is needed, have all members of parliament pay back
their falsely claimed expenses and second home allowances

If you think this would work, please forward to everyone you know. If
not, please disregard.
