If Swift does not actually think the Irish people should eat their children what does he think they should do?
In Swift's second paragrpah, he thinks of a "fair, cheap, and easy method of making these children sound, useful members of the commonwealth...." After this phrase, one must assume that there is no easy, fair and cheap method of doing anything. He piques the reader's interests by suggesting that there is a way to deal with the problem of child overcrowding.
Swift's own ideas come in the third to the last paragraph:
Therefore let no man talk to me of other expedients: Of taxing our absentees at five shillings a pound: Of using neither cloaths, nor houshold furniture, except what is of our own growth and manufacture: Of utterly rejecting the materials and instruments that promote foreign luxury: Of curing the expensiveness of pride, vanity, idleness, and gaming in our women: Of introducing a vein of parsimony, prudence and temperance: Of learning to love our country, wherein we differ even from Laplanders, and the inhabitants of Topinamboo: Of quitting our animosities and factions, nor acting any longer like the Jews, who were murdering one another at the very moment their city was taken: Of being a little cautious not to sell our country and consciences for nothing: Of teaching landlords to have at least one degree of mercy towards their tenants. (Swift, 36)
