Credit crunch solution ?

[plank 10]

its easy,

the government prints LOADS of money, £10,000 for each and every person, and gives it to them, no strings !!

the shops will be full,

from sweet shops with the kids spending theirs, (also providing loads of work in the future for dentists, this is not just a short term solution)

to the car showrooms

crime would go down, no need to rob an old woman for a fiver,

the druggies would overdose, (quick solution)

the pubs would be full, bingo halls also

people would spend money on their own homes

people who don't need it would either leave it in the bank, which would solve the banking problems,

or give it to charity

everyone's a winner:love::love:

I think that is roughly what the US government have just done. The big difference is that they have made it available to the banks to lend to you... at a generous interest rate, obviously.

There may be a SLIGHT inflation problem with 68 million people suddenly spending £10,000....ie, a pint of beer may rise to £3,000!!!!! Would be funny....

Wow must imagine the queues at Dempseys when the entry fee would rise to 100 pounds ...
