Privatisation of Public Assets

One of course can already Nationalise certain private assets, typically for the costs of 500-1000 Cr and population happiness to put them into public control, often to take maximum advantage of resource production of that asset.
However, I think a nice small addition to the game would be allowing the inverse. Being able to put the same kind of assets back into private ownership.
This could work by providing a one time credit bonus (that isn't as much as the nationalisation cost to avoid abuse, maybe 375-750 Cr) at the cost of taking those credits from the private economy and the reduction of worker happiness. If there's not enough private economy credits, then the option to do so could be greyed out. Workers would not be happy as they'd fear their jobs could be under threat under new ownership. The credits would come from the private economy as they're the one's buying the asset that the state is selling off.
This could be useful to if someone is in dire economic circumstances, where one can't get a meaningful amount of credits from trading resources or from stratagem/fate cards. A means of sacrificing the benefits of a nationalised asset for a short term monetary gain in emergencies.
