Seems as though especially nowadays Officials, charged with the responsibility of scripting rules and regulations (that become bills and eventually morph into laws), get away with presenting some of the stupidest ideas!
A lot of those idiotic suggestions happen to garner certain advantage getting streamlined through the capillary action of 'the buddy system.'
I propose that there may be a significant tax savings achieved if Law Makers were required to pre-screen their ideas by way of free non-enterprising scrutinization through mandatory HalfBakery submissions!-- Macdaddyx1, Feb 10 2008 Attack of the 'Jerga'nauts! http://www.petition...51959/petition.htmlwelcome to the new China Republic!

But [+] if this means we can help to shape French law.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Feb 10 2008 I'd prefer it if we could fight wars with cats over custard and tumbleweeds.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Feb 10 2008 If we had Vernon and Treon rewrite all the bills, nobody would or could read them.-- Canuck, Feb 10 2008 Yeah, have you read a bill lately?

There is no real division Only decisions Made coarse in hasty moments.-- bungston, Feb 11 2008 When you say seasons Do you mean a time of year or salt and pepper ?-- 8th of 7, Feb 13 2008 No real seasons Just decisions made spicy In tasty moments-- bungston, Feb 13 2008 Bugger me!

shirley you mean "Wars would be fought with cats? "-- bleh, Feb 16 2008 Nevertheless the site would be overrun with "the bad people". Maybe a meta site where people of reason would be secretly invited to join the secret Half Legislatury and kabal the making of laws. A internet "Jerga for Justice" in legislation.-- WcW, Feb 16 2008 Just saying, uncensored debate would probably be better than just listening to TIMA, HAL, and VIKI.-- Macdaddyx1, Feb 17 2008 random, halfbakery
