Could we employ USENET to form a new Rational party...

free of the obsolete coalitions that make up the major parties?

That would therefore be more able to think outside the box. For
instance:

1- Promote the formation of local well regulated militias that would
therefore protect the rights of gun owners. Course, the militias would
want to be sure that all their members were rational to avoid
litigation.

2- Whatever else crime is, it is psychopathology. Rather than employ
capital punishment use chemical prefrontal lobotamies. Which would be
more deterrant because the destruction of the personality to the
terrorists and social predators is a fate worse than death. And of
course, if new evidence, DNA or whatever proves innocence, then the
drugs can be omitted and individuals can be returned to their
families.

3- Torture is obsolete. There are FMRI Brain scans and new
electroencephalogram technologies to reveal attempts to decieve.

Far too expensive.

Dead criminals don't break out of prison.

Dead criminals don't commit crimes.

You obviously don't understand torture.

The purpose of torture is to FORCE the person the TELL THE TRUTH, not
to detect that they may be lying....

The State can punish a murderer. When abortion is self-defense its
not murder. When its not, it is.

No, there is no requirement that the rich (or anyone) MUST pay, you
are assuming there is a requirement to subsidize the poor. There
isn't.

Or, we can pay our national debt slowly over time in exactly the same
way we and every other country always has... Duh.

No, we have criminal aliens invading our country because we have not
secured our borders. Secure the borders.

No, we have criminal aliens in our country because we have not found
and deported them. Find and deport them.

Here's why that won't work. There are two types of dealers. The
topmost level of dealers are not US citizens, not in the US, and their
money WHILE IT IS IN BANKS is beyond our legal reach.

All other dealers mostly don't have money in banks and don't have
fixed legal assets that can be taken.

But it is an great idea to NOT elect lawyers to any position.
