    Well, I can't really say convicted criminals are any worse than the ones we put in there now who haven't been caught yet.

    Random selection? Anyone over 25.. Car rental companies got that one right.

    If they're incompetent? Gee! It can hardly get worse. The plus is they only get one term, and then, out! We could tattoo their forehead, if you're so inclined...

    I think it's time to give some people an *offer they can't refuse*. Time to turn public office into obligatory community service. Institute a military style conscription with a lottery system similar to the system we had in the late 60s. Your number comes up, you get a single tour of duty and then you are sent home with a plaque that says *I Served*, puts an end to the careerism we suffer today. And by the way, your performance in office goes on your "permanent record", so don't muck it up!

    When the fences come down the water will seek its own level. We are extremely productive and prosperous, enough for all of us to live like kings. Self motivation is key. I'm not into this identity, cultural purity bullshit about the 'dynamic' of a country. That is a major source of the problem right there. The people living there now are hardly what you would call 'indigenous'. The place has been overrun probably four or five times. It is time to accept the fact that we live on a single planet, and that we all have rights to access any part of it.

    We have a year and a half to find one, tie him up to the chair and give him a pen. But we have to learn to tune out the bullshit.

    All very primal. The alpha male is the only one with the harem.

    Probably has more to do with our 'new' system of instant communication that came with radio. Now that we all can see war, we are finding it a little less palatable.

    I'm a businessman. Blood is a big expense.

    The sled looks like it could sink a ship, made a hell of a splash, too bad they cut the video short.

    No, what was happening was that different people were buying the same gold brick.

    Anyway, the shameful part is that this income was hardly taxed. All our currency is tied up in this horrible shell game.

    No, the "Official Narrative" (scripted drivel) of your tribe.

    Sorry:

    You mean segregate it like the following?

    Undefined variables... What the hell does "Provided by Ubuntu" and "Canonical Partners" mean? Just spell it out.

    That makes no sense. The US has no 'left leaning' party of any note. It's an illusion created by a point of view, like those carnival houses tilted to make it look like the water is running uphill.

    "more useful info" is usually just advertising of some sort. Instead of saying *New and Improved*, put the type of license it's under. It's usually just one word, "Open", "Free", or "Commercial". I don't believe it's too much to ask. I do believe the omission is intentional, a bit of quid prop quo going on.
