Letter to Gillard

I haven't posted for some time, but couldn't pass this one up!  Some brilliant spark thought up this letter to our PM:


Dear Ms. Gillard,

Please find below our suggestion for fixing Australia 's economy.

Instead of giving billions of dollars 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 10 million people over 50 in the work force.

 Pay them $1 million each severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:

1) They MUST retire.
     Ten million job openings - unemployment fixed


 2) They MUST buy a new Australian car.
     Ten million cars ordered - Car 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 $100 WORTH of alcohol/tobacco a week .......
     and there's your money back in duty/tax etc


6) Instead of stuffing around with the carbon emissions trading scheme that makes us pay for the major polluters tell the greedy bastards to reduce their pollution emissions by 75% within 5 years or we shut them down.

 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

And if you were wondering why we can't have certain notices in public places, here's more food for thought!


 THE 10 COMMANDMENTS
     The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in a
courthouse or Parliament, has nothing to do with offending other faiths.  It is this -
     You cannot post 'Thou Shalt Not Steal', 'Thou Shalt Not Commit
Adultery' and 'Thou Shall Not Lie' in a building full of lawyers, judges and
politicians...... 
It creates a hostile work environment!
