very educational

problem is, those like luci tend to think in absolutes

as if life were only a set of rules

I do think it is a problem that there are laws on the books that aren't being followed

They should be followed or removed because otherwise we might end up with something real important being ignored in that manner

selective enforcement is the way those in the know manipulate the plebes

as long as you don't piss the wrong person off, then you are good

i have always been the type to argue that for a law to be passed it must have a justification for its own existence attached. and a time limit for it to expire. so you have to pass the same law every few decades, and if its justification no longer makes sense. the law can pass out of the books with no effort.

See Count Dankula being fucked by the courts for details

Well, try working in gov sometime

I like that idea also Shai but I can see where you could run into problems with that

everyone passes more and more laws

but only 8 hrs in the day

and no one stops to consider that two laws might make moving impossible

Laws built ontop of questionable laws

so it becomes a game of "here is what we SAY we do vs here is how we get the job done"

night my nibbas and my boomers

night Flavius

i care less a bout the probelms the solutions causes, because the way the system works at the moment has infinitely worse problems.

Like there are some laws that have so much shit built ontop of them that you can't just remove them without massive run on effects

well, if a proposed solution has said effect, it ends up exactly what we are seeing

it's like two parents that fail to put on a united front in front of children

the child sees the division and plays one side against the other

that is the current two party system in a nutshell

Divide and conquer

yup

yep. law books need a good dusting. i would honestly start with step one and go back to basics. ig you built a house of cards and you need a sky scraper. knock it down and build it again right.

and the only way to hold the elites in check is in by joining with the LEft

Problem with that is do you trust the people that are going to be doing that?

which is a damn impossibility at this point

And the answer is a resounding fuck no because they'd be repubs and dems

"who do you trust to make decisions for you" no body but myself, if i want to fix things, i will do it myself.

yeah, that ' back to basics' approach might sound simple but in practice, it has problems

you can't though

"If you want something done RIGHT, do it yourself"

You wouldn't be able to mobilise the motivation to get that done nobody wants to fucking start that undertaking

BUT

There is no external reason to get people onboard with it

"You and do anything... but not EVERYTHING"

At this time
