I got it from an email. Here is the original Chinese: 【官员应恢复坐轿制度】有网友建议官员应恢复坐轿制度，主要有6个好处：1，低碳环保；2，全国800多万官员，每轿4人抬，新增3200多万人就业；3，每年至少省1500亿公车支出；4，彻底解决城市堵车，消除尾号限行麻烦；5，企业家效仿，又增加1倍以上就业；6，方便百姓拦轿鸣冤告状更加亲民。

Nice one! Made me smile. It wouldn’t surprise me if the idea gains traction at some point among China’s elite either…

This is really funny and I think it would help with the traffic and pollution here in Beijing. It can get really bad.
