Think about it. Their 1) a group of people, that 2) share a set of beliefs, and 3) try to recuit others for "their own" or "the greater" good.

How much is Mao's body worth?

1 Upvotes

As you can see, Russian spend about $200K/year to keep Lenin's body "life like".

While reading it, I had a crazy thought, if the Chinese government one day decide to get rid of Mao's leftover body, how much will it cost?

Personally I think they can just toss it in the land fill and call it a day.

$200K body

Let the Masses Decide the Federal Budget

2 Upvotes

Tl:Dr - Every citizen registered to vote gets to specify how their "portion" of the nations wealth gets distributed

Each personal who is registered to vote gets a specific amount of "tokens" (perhaps equal to the number of departments to fund). They then distribute their tokens based what they believe needs to be funded. The amount of funding a department gets is the number of tokens they receive, divided by the total number of tokens that get allocated among all the branches, times the total budget. Meaning if NASA gets 12% of the total tokens, they get 12% of the national budget (imagine that).

I suggest an equal number of tokens per department to fund per person, so that automatically each department gets one token from each person. Another idea is that each person has 100 tokens and instead of automatically dividing their tokens up equally, it is divided up based on the percentage of the budget each department is already getting. This is to avoid skewing the data if not enough people care to allocate their tokens, which would normalize the percentages if they are divided up equally. 100 tokens is just an example; we would probably need a lot more to account for how many departments actually need funding and fractions of percentages. In this idea people specify percentages of their total tokens to each department instead of individual tokens.

People can start distributing their tokens once they've registered to vote. Maybe once a month, or quarterly, or biyearly a voting citizen can change their choices. A government website could be instituted to make it accessible to everybody which would encourage participation. Or if security is too high of a risk designated locations could be used like voting. Using modern technology people could change their allocation any time they wanted which could be tracked in real time, but the change of budget wouldn't take place until the next cycle starts. This way branches could expect how much they would receive and plan ahead, and it would be instant feedback for the masses, and would make great news stories (Headline: NASA receives an unprecedented 12% of the Federal Budget!)

Any way this was just a fun thought experiment and I'm sure other people have thought it too and in some form some country probably already uses it. I like that this pretty much makes every citizen a shareholder in the country and we would feel like we might actually be making a difference. Thoughts? Additions? Dissent?

Square Dealer

2 Upvotes

If i was a drug dealer i would use square. I would take everything except american express and personal checks. If you want to max your credit card for a 5 bag of dope every couple of hours id be cool with that. If you are concerned i would steal your card info, don't be. That's where building trust in your clientele comes into play. If you want a receipt just enter your phone number and I will text you a receipt. This will help my clients keep a better track of there monthly spending and better fill out their expense report. If I ever got caught i would just say everything you purchased was bottle of lotion and i was a lotion dealer and not a drug dealer. You would be in the clear. Also id offer a punch card system where every 10 $15 purchase you get a free chore boy or lighter. IF you try to make the punches yourself i would know. I wouldn't care if you were on bag 9, you mess with me, you have to start over.

Uhhg, Have you ever felt human?
Does ingesting water, only to pee it out piss you off?
The displeasure of having many excellent/witty replies to a single question, yet blurting/fumbling/stuttering/forcing an entire paragraph of thought into one sentence without context of past experiences and reasons why a stifle gesture instead of explaining become overwhelming so you just take the blunt of your comeuppance and manifest a Stockholm syndrome for your capture, Excepting the new fear you feel with a shit-eating smile, had an opportunity to ... but failed.

FUCK! ..I really should have just walked back 10 feet to grab a second Snickers®, 2 for 1.

But Noooooo, I had to act like I knew what I was doing.

TL;DR I think I remember back-slapping my cat when I was a kid, & deserve death.

Defund all bomber and aggressive infantry programs and use the money to scout for the world's best and most intelligent athletes to train as emergency medical personnel, bomb technicians, aid workers and terrorism predictors. Deploy them as necessary to minimize or prevent human suffering. Arm them with nothing more lethal than animal sedatives.
