The NI Secretary is considering new measures to raise funds for the ailing economy struggling under the weight of public spending.
Selling off NI Water will be an unpopular move, introducing prescription charges will hit the elderly and window tax has already been tried. Why not try crowdfunding? Libraries, rehab centres, care homes and local community hospitals could be financed by public subscription.
Heaton Harris could match donations pound for pound and offer prizes for top donors, private meetings with Rishi Sunak, peerages and the like.
Private healthcare could be expanded with corporate incentives, tax breaks and NHS waiting lists drastically shortened. GP practices could be auctioned off to private medicine and medical policies brought in for all new salaried employees.
Privatisation is not just about selling off the family silver or the trickle down effect of wealth creation it is a sea change in the way we see ourselves. Society doesn’t need a safety net if you have learnt to fly.
