And justice for the rest of us
I was telling a friend today what I thought would be at least "getting there" for all these power-hungry bastards that make up the list of FOG (friends of george) and millionaire assholes who are in this administration.

Here's my idea (rather than trying to remember all of them, I will only name the chimp):

Ten years sentence, to be spent living in the worst slum in the country, or one of the most violent projects, complete with whatever vermin or pestilence exists there--oh yeah, and the insects and rodents, too;
Must work 60 hours at either a homeless shelter, an abuse shelter, or soup kitchen, or other eye-opening drudge job;
Must not have any kind of health care, at all;
and must not be allowed pets, food stamps or any kind of government assistance.

Force those bastards to see what life is like for the downtrodden.

Honestly, I don't think it would rightly serve justice for these self-serving bastards, but I think most of us would like to see how they would react.



Within reason, how would you like to see justice served by all these assholes?


(I remember Ken Lay's wife saying how "poor" and "bankrupt" they were after the fall of Enron, and how they had to sell their Colorado vacation home. I think it was a goddamned shame that that bastard died before he went to prison.)

3. How about an Iraqi prison?
Choice of that or front-line duty.

4. Sue the war profiteers for every penny they made-
if, theoretically we could calculate that, and theoretically find the money. Oh, and in my dream this is in international court and we have the participation of most of the world. Justice, to me is that they would lose their fortunes, and thus, power.
The trick though, would be preventing a new cartel from stealing all of that money.
