Our founding fathers assumed that everyone would act in their own best interests. That would keep all the groups watching each other and keeping each other's power in check. They didn't think about what would happen if a bunch of groups were to put their differences aside and work in concert. We need incentives, both positive and negative, for gov't people to do a good job. Simple idea: 1. If their decisions are really bad, they not only will not get paid, but will also be fined a large enough amount. 2. They are allowed no other compensation during their terms. I still want the IRS to investigate how these Democrats became millionaires on a gov't salary. .... We're lost but we're making good time. ___ MultiMail/Linux v0.52 --- Mystic BBS/QWK v1.12 A47 2021/12/25 (Windows/32) * Origin: cold fusion - cfbbs.net - grand rapids, mi (1:120/616) .
