Oh, a meme. The indignity.

Busier than expected this morning, so I thought I'd hand you all an opportunity on a plate*: I would like anyone and everyone who reads this to post in here something they would like to do with me someday.

Then post this in your journal to find out what people want to do with you.

<sup>* I swear, I couldn't make it any worse for myself if I painted a target on my back, could I?

Death Penalty: David Blunkett and our nice Congressmen/wo have done a lovely job of imprisoning people for minor, petty offences that aren't antisocial, which I find completely abhorrent. As far as I can tell, the social theory behind imprisonment, from its base seems to be founded on serious antisocial behavior that has serious consequences. Violence, invasion of house, murder are all things that have a quantifiable emotional or financial cost. The use of P2P programs, spitting on the streets or littering don't necessarily have a quantifiable objective social or financial cost.

It is a superiority issue for killing the evil fuckers but how much of our social worth are we to exchange for keeping the violent criminals in a state if limbo? There are no options for rehabilitation for a small percentage of the severely emotionally disturbed. Instead, society has to support abberant behavior for decades in the form of a prison? Morally superior or not, I say cut the fat!

I think this is going into social contract territory... ;)

I agree completely, public education seems to be thwarted with comfortable red tape. 100,000 a year for public education? I suspect much of that has to do with the creation of certain 'necessary' positions over the years that have now grown obsolete or inconsequential. Education systems don't seem to respond very quickly to changing social need.

By 'in care' I mean kids taken away from their parents (or orphans) and kept at state expense - fed, housed, clothed, educated etc. Eton does the same job, just £60k cheaper...

That makes me laugh, especially since they're trying to get the public sector to extend their opening hours....
