No one wants their last words to be "Oh my God! The old gypsy woman was right..."

Elaine, our favourite blogging crone, has posted an interesting question and asked for some feedback

…if you could make up ONE new law and have it enforced FOREVER, by goons, what would your law be? Use your imagination, let your despotic instincts run free.

My answer is thus

Hmmmm difficult to answer, there are so many :-)

Well positing that the law can have subsections (I’m so crafty ;))

Oyez! Oyez! Oyez!

By the order of the Dynamic Driveler, Grand Inquisitor, Ruler of All Earthly Realms (or at least that which lays between these four walls and begging the sufferance of His Nobleness, Riley my master cat) it is hereby proclaimed that:

1. All politicians must henceforth be squeaky clean honest.

   (a)No money may be accepted from any source other than the government for conducting political campaigns.
      (a.1) While in office no money may be accepted from any source other than the government
      (a.2) Upon leaving office the candidate may not work for, or serve in any paid capacity for, any person, company, organization or corporation directly and positively affected by any legislation voted favourably on by the candidate.
      (a.3)All politicians must immediately resign their seat if any relative closer than 1st degree cousin assumes a paid position with any person, company, organization or corporation directly and positively affected by any legislation voted favourably on by the candidate

Penalty for breaking this law is life in prison without parole and no country club prisons either ;)

In taking the same test that Elaine did that led to this question I scored:


You are a

Social Liberal
(76% permissive)

and an…

Economic Liberal
(5% permissive)

You are best described as a:

Socialist
