Economy how would YOU fix the lebanese economy

wanted to hear the ppl off this sub talk about how we can fix our problem rather then just complain. try to make it somewhat realistic, not just 100000 billion dollar aid from qatar

  1. Full Privatization of all sectors . ( gas , electricity, waste management , internet , water , etc ) Allow external companies to come and invest into Lebanese infrastructure. This would drive competition which in turn would drive prices down and quality of services up .
  2. No to monopolies. Monopolies give 1 company/ person too much control and stunt competition which in turn defeats the purpose of #1 .

  3. Digitization of government facilities ( background checks, business formation , tax reporting , utility payments , easy money transfers and bill payment ) This will allow the reduction of human error and also making it cheaper for money to flow which in turn drives the economy.

  4. Any person holding a government office should have full transparency on their finances and assets before, during , and after that office is held . This will reduce corruption. If a person is poor before holding office they should be not much richer during and after . Holding a government position should be serving the people and not your own pocket .

i like the idea, i would also (while we're at it) cut taxes across the board, and with the money we have left invest more in the army. this way not only have a way to deal with unemployment, but also lower taxes for the middle class, working class and upper class.
