Hardly, my advice is real, would have a long term positive impact, while, admittedly, inflicting a lot of pain in the process. If there is any benefit to it, it would be that at least the pain would be shared equally across the board allowing for some form of 'misery loves company'.

On the other hand, your advice, at best, is happy clappy populist advice that will, temporarily make some people happy, but will not change the trajectory of the country resulting in the exact same spot only few years from implementation; and that is assuming it can be done in a way that is not immediately subverted..

If anything, I am giving you a real good reason for not just being a cynic, but being a cynic, who can make a change that lasts.
