Policy - Lovelink: Australia Needs More Love!

Me First! will be implementing the policy of 'Negative Income Tax' thereby allowing the abolition of Centrelink (as both collection of tax and payment of income-support will be taken care of by the Tax Office). However the model of Centrelink will be the basis for a new government instrumentality - Lovelink.

Lovelink will be the government owned and operated dating agency. Its purpose will be to facilitate the formation of relationships and ultimately the promotion of family bonds. Key aspects of the Lovelink policy will include:

Smoochstart Allowance: This payment will cover the costs of travel to date locations (the further the better so as to combat in-breeding), flowers, restaurant dinners, movies, dances, motel rooms, chocolates and contraceptives.

Date Diary: Eligibility for Smoochstart will depend on the regular submission of a Date Diary in which the identity of persons dated and the nature of dating activity entered into must be proven (face-to-face dates only will be recognised). The Date Diary can be an entirely on-line document allowing for minimal resource usage and document handling. The on-line medium will also allow for supporting evidence such as embarrassing Facebook photos to be linked to (naturally Lovelink will have to be ones Facebook Friend to allow us access to such evidence).

Partner Search Support: The full array of connection services provided by any dating agency will be given by Lovelink. Lovelink will quickly become the most patronised of such services (because of the Smoochstart incentive) and thereby provide the largest pool of potential suitors.

Lover Resume: One innovation of the Lovelink method will be the Lover Resume. This will be different from a normal on-line profile and will aggressively sell ones attributes as a partner. The resume will include references from exes one is still friends with or admirers who never got the chance (so you gotta be nice).

Woo & Win Intensive Support: For those particularly difficult-to-date clients Lovelink will provide comprehensive training and conditioning to become a better date. This will be useful for everyone from wall-flowers to obnoxious jerks (who will have to sit together in the same seminar and get lectured by some successful but aging Casanova or Casanovix).

With this raft of initiatives Lovelink will exponentially increase the number of dates happening in society. Statistically the more one dates the more quickly one will find the right partners. The end result will be a more happy society, a greater incidence of wanted children, and improved stimulation of the hospitality sector.
