《Idealism》The Solutions to "The Problems with "The Plan (1)" "

Joseph took a deep breath, and started. "Opposing Politicians. Use the Speech."
Lawson raised an eyebrow. "The Speech. You have a lot of faith in the Speech. That I don't see. I don't see the Speech. Have you written it down somewhere?"
"Oh, no. I haven't even planned it out yet. It's all a bundle of ideas, up here." Joseph taps the side of his forehead. "It needs untangling."
Lawson sighed. "I don't even know where to begin with that."
--------------------------------------------------------
"On the bosses of the Insurance Companies, we need to use a mix between exploiting their sins and guidance. The Seven Sins are Sloth, Greed, Gluttony, Lust, Wrath, uh, what was the other two?"
Lawson dipped his head. "Pride and Envy."
"Pride, Envy. Okay, so we take the soft approach. We guide them, we tell them that this is for the good of our country. That's the basis. Then we exploit Pride, Sloth, and Greed. What if they are the only one who don't conform? Do they want their family to look down on them? What about the public's opinion? If they are the only one who follows profit instead of the people, nobody will choose to be insured to them. Also, we set a time limit of 2 years for them to clear out everything, and we provide support for them so that they can settle in nicely. Combination of Pride, Sloth, and Greed."
----------------------------------------------------
"Considering problems tres and cuatro, all we have to do is use social media. We livestream. No. First we tweet the livestream link then we livestream it to the public. And also we use socail media to remind the public to look at all pieces of media before coming to a decision."
"But then, there would be no room for mistakes. No amrgin for error. You can do that?" Lawson prodded.

"Gods no. But I have to."
----------------------------------------------------------------
"Money, money, money. Money makes the world go round, yet its the root of all evi. Let's go. Billionaire donation. Hm. We invite all those with money, not just the billionaires, and also the bosses of the healthcare insurance companies, and we livestream with them in the room. We exploit the Pride, we tell them that this is good for their country, and because of the livestream they can't refuse or risk their own pride. Then they'll donate, but they want to one-up each other because they want to show that they are better than everyone. And that's great. We use that money. We also tell the Staff hey, can we dock 50%? And they'll say no, but then we decrease it to 21% and they'll agree. I call it kicking the door down and then de-escalating, the strategy."
---------------------------------------------------------
"I can't do anything about the time taken other than throw in more money. This isn't a problem, its a worry I can't do anything about. So I'll just ignore it."
------------------------------------------------------
"Job demands. increase minimum wage. Also outlaw crazy ass qualifications. I don't know how, but we can do that, can't we?"
Lawson nodded. "People will bitch about it, however."
Joseph shrugged. "Only the assholes will bitch about it. Fuck them. Still, they are the loudest, so we have to prepare for that, and they have more power.... Change, we need change."
"Okay. so how do we do change?"
Joseph ran a hand across his forehead and through his hair. "A lot of people think that change is throwing a boulder into an ocean. Wrong. Too much time and effort. You ever watch the movie The Core?"
Lawson shook his head. "No, not really."
Joseph apologised. "Well, I'm sorry, but I got to have to spoil. Except that it comes out within 30 minutes of it, so its not really a spoiler. Just like affecting the core, change comes from several factors all impacting at once. 5 pebbles cause more ripples than a boulder. The more the factors the better. Now, all we have to do is implement change... implement change... I'm a factor. What other factors are there?"
