Dette er valget 2011 i en nøddeskal


The tribal wisdom of the Dakota Indians, passed on from generation to generation, says that, "When you discover that you are riding a dead horse (aka "velfærdssamfundet"), the best strategy is to dismount."

However, in government, more advanced strategies are often employed, such as:

1. Buying a stronger whip.
(Starthjælp, højere skatter, forbud)

 
2. Changing riders.
(Helle T og Villy)
 
3. Appointing a committee to study the horse.
(Velfærdskommision, Arb.markedskommision, .....)
 
4. Arranging to visit other countries to see how other cultures ride dead horses.
(Inspirationsrejser for politikere)
 
5. Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included.
(Det er slet ikke meningen at et velfædssamfund skal kunne finansieres)

6. Reclassifying the dead horse as living-impaired.
(Velfærdssamfundet er blot midlertidigt presset, men hvis vi bare skruer lidt her...)
 
7. Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead horse. 
(Jobcentre, It projekter, vikarbureauer)

8. Harnessing several dead horses together to increase speed.
(EU?)

9. Providing additional funding and/or training to increase dead horse's performance.
(Alle off. ledere skal bare på kursus, og så går det godt igen) 

10. Rewriting the expected performance requirements for all horses.
(Velfærdssamfundet klarer sig stadig bedre end Grækenland, Irland, Italien, Portugal og Spanien)
