In that case, I declare a new Poopyhead Rule. Anytime somebody in Kansas or any other state engages in an act of severe Poopyheadity, they will be fined $100. $49 will go towards medical research (including stemcell-based projects) $49 will go towards healthcare for people who don't have insurance, and $2 towards paying for the national debt.
It's a win-win situation... either:
1. Within a few months, we'll be rid of the national debt and increase the average American life-expectancy by several years (as well as helping everybody else by sharing the medical advances the research creates, which will hopefully create some global goodwill towards us that will help us clean up our reputation with the rest of the world).
or
2. Politicians, fanatics, and other such lusers will all be forced to flee the country and go someplace else where being stupid is cheaper. (Which will reduce the income from the Poopyhead Rule, but at least with them gone we can start cleaning up the mess they've been making.) |
