Miscellaneous Thoughts Part 24

• The Stanford Mock Prison experiment is an example of how power corrupts.
• Any legislator or president that presents a bill that majorly affects the economic or social systems (like Obamacare) of America should be treated like an amendment to the Constitution.  None of this “we have to pass it first to find out what’s in it” crap. 
• The only knowledge gov’t wants to have is how to retain power.
• One man to another: We divorced on reconcilable differences. She was an insane progressive and I wasn’t. 
• When a business grows it has a tendency to hire more employees. When a gov’t grows, its power grows too. And so does its corruption. Which can lead to tyranny.
• Good intentions is like William Tell saying oops when he shot his son’s forehead instead of the apple. Oops doesn’t change things. The son still has an arrow stuck in his forehead.
• Audible.com is a good website for audible e-books. I especially liked the audible  version of Gray’s Anatomy. Think about it.
• Maybe what we need in America’s Congress are people that are humble, patriotic, and have a good credit score. Being brilliant is nice, but being able to think about side-effects would be better. After that’s why there is a Library of Congress in Washington. So, you can learn what you need to know.
• During the presidential campaign Obama is not only going to take off the gloves but he is going to put on brass knuckles instead. After all it is the Chicago way.
• To any girl who wants the gov’t to cover her birth control: Ever heard of self-control? Close your legs. That won’t cost you or the taxpayers a dime. You are not an animal after all.
