Five Step Guide to turning The UK into a Ponzi scheme Run by the Government and China - funded by the UK tax payer!

1. The Benefit: A promise that the investment will achieve an above normal rate of return. The rate of return is often specified. The promised rate of return has to be high enough to be worthwhile to the investor but not so high as to be unbelievable

 Examples:

Are Brits going to get screwed by pricey nuclear power?

£50 Billion scheme HS2 that government claim will help the UK economy by cutting half an hour off the train journey time from Birmingham to London.

Cancer the NHS and the private profiteers

The Setup: A relatively plausible explanation of how the investment can achieve these above normal rates of return. One often-used explanation is that the investor is skilled and/or has some inside information. Another possible explanation is that the investor has access to an investment opportunity not otherwise available to the general public.

2.1
Get an alibi and coconspirator for your Ponzi scheme like China who you still give aid to despite being a superpower, making them appear to be an equal or inferior business partner that negotiations are essential with for the British economy, so you have an plausible explanation for meeting up with your fellow schemers.

2.2
Get your Ponzi partners in crime to create a distraction from the scheme like  announcing they won't buy UK milk that is from bTB vaccinated cows, 'forcing you' in to any drastic action that makes you look like you have inside information to aid the UK economy.

2.3
Demonstrate your skills by going against all scientific knowledge and Instigate a cull of badgers by falsely claiming bTB is badly affecting farmers earnings and the tax payer.
The truth being that farmers are reliant on bTB payments due to only getting cost price for sales of milk, so they are paid subsidies and deliberately overpaid in compensation (to keep them quiet) for a lucrative disease which they help spread.

3
Initial Credibility: The person running the scheme needs to be believable enough to convince the initial investors to leave their money with him.

3.1
Fly to China with your ministers of crime to tell them to create a market for UK products (such as dairy produce and pig sperm) by culling 1/5 of their pigs and cows to create a smokescreen fake market for trade between the two countries, that makes it appear to the UK general public the economy is benefiting from China.

Key to this has been figures from China which revealed two million dairy cows have been culled in the past 12 months. The reasons for this remain unclear but it has caused the national herd to drop back to about seven million head, creating a short term market for UK dairy products.

3.2
Announce that your country can't afford HS2 but our great trading partners China will be able to help us out by investing all the money they need for it, just like they've invested in other profitable UK businesses.

4
 Initial Investors Paid Off: For at least a few periods the investors need to make at least the promised rate of return - if not better.

4.1
Joke around at PMQ's like you haven't a care in the world and everything is under control, whist at the same time your reaping the benefits of austerity cuts from the vulnerable.


5
Communicated Successes: Other investors need to hear about the payoffs, such that their numbers grow exponentially. At the very least more money needs to be coming in than is being paid back to investors.


5.1
You've profited along with China from everything in the UK that was profitable, and have helped China avenge the Opium wars in helping reduce the UK public to drug dependent zombies, companies that you and the Chinese will always benefit financially from!
