2/3 of the prison population is drug & alcohol

12-step spiritual recovery works the best,
but most won't follow the suggestions.
If our political leaders had court-ordered job requirement
to attend 3 meetings a week of Politicians Anonymous, to
learn a new way of life & become less selfish,

Only you would advocate political re-education camps and
for some odd reason no one else does.


They're not allowed to. The predecessor to the 12-step program,
the Washingtonians, in the 1840s, had 200,000 - 300,000 members,
but then got into other issues, like anti-slavery and Temperance,
which caused them to break up. The founders of A.A. knew that,
and were determined to not let that happen again, so they devised
the principle of Singleness of Purpose.

then more of the drunks & druggies would get into recovery.
Monkey see, monkey do. lol

I do nothing of the sort. I have always maintained
that all pollys are useless ****wits and that most
voters are even worse. However, a decent democracy
leaves all the alternatives for dead. in spades with
political re-education camps for politicians.

which has given us endless war since the Beginning,


We have had wars since long before there were
any politicians at all, most obviously with tribal
wars and we have never had endless war either.

And your stupid political re-education camps
for politicians doesnt stop wars anyway.

two World Wars in the last 100 years,


And no more since the last one, due to nukes and NATO.

& 100 seconds from Midnight on the Doomsday Clock!


That has always been mindless political bull****.

You can't name one day when there wasn't a war going on,
or they were cleaning up from the previous, or preparing
for the next one. Not even possible.

You can't possibly know that to be true, as it has
never been tried!

It has just taken other forms, cyber war, terrorism, etc.

Thats not endless war for most of the world, stupid.

More mindless bull****, all of China, Cambodia,
Vietnam, Russia etcetc etc have all tried it.
