We should go to schools and catch every kid trying to be a politician. Then we should ask them questions to see if they are assholes. We should then confirm with other kids to see if they are. Once we identify the ones who are assholes we absolutely ban them from ever taking public office. Instead we point them to useful careers. I'm sure there are useful things that assholes can do that they can enjoy.
Maybe they can design cruel ways to "finish'em" for video games!.....Finish'em! ....this ticket #435 is for parking here on Fridays....and your porchlights need to be shaded or pointing down, not into your neighbors' windows! And only 3 chickens max! 5 if you keep them in the basement.
