But, as to my self, having been wearied out for many years with offering vain, idle, visionary thoughts, and at length utterly despairing of success, I fortunately fell upon this proposal, which, as it is wholly new, so it hath something solid and real, of no expence and little trouble, full in our own power, and whereby we can incur no danger in disobliging England. –“A Modest Proposal,” Jonathan Swift How does Swift use satire in this passage to criticize society? He suggests that people are foolish because they are unwilling to spend money to solve problems. He shows that the people of Ireland would be better off listening to the English. He suggests that people are so old-fashioned that they will not listen to new ideas. He implies that the English care so little for the Irish people that they will not object to using Irish children for food.

He implies that the English care so little for the Irish people that they will not object to using Irish children for food.

Explanation:

Jonathan Swift's "A Modest Proposal" is a satirical pamphlet/ proposal where he criticizes the English's approach in matters of the Irish society. The proposal highlights the poverty and problems in Ireland and how the English government/ monarchy is so far away from caring even a bit for them.

As seen in the given excerpt from the proposal, Swift declares that his new proposal will provide "something solid and real, of no expence and little trouble". Moreover, this new plan will "incur no danger in disobliging England", and that it will merely involve the children of Ireland and would rather be benefitting for the rich people. This seems to suggest that the English care little for the Irish people and that they will have no qualms with using Irish children for food.

Thus, the correct answer is the last/ fourth option.
