It's kind of funny

Everyone complains about oppression, but no one addresses the elephant in the room.

Why don't we do more to simply inhibit powerful people, before they run amok?

I mean, it's always the same story. You get your Epsteins doing evil shit, or your power Mad Hitlers, or your evil presidents, or your rich fat cats. So how about sorting them out then, and making sure they never happen again.

The problem the way I see it is:

1. We depend on these Epsteins and Wensteins because they're "Golden gooses". They make a lot of people a lot of money.

This leads to the next point:

2. Golden gooses get preferential treatment, and sometimes that goes to their head. Or, sometimes they're just psychopaths from the start.

The fact is, being reactionary with these guys is not good enough.. They do too much damage before they're found out. They need to be stopped before they do anything.

I propose stripping powerful people of basic human rights, Full range of rights for the rabble, less of it for the rich, well connected, and well heeled.

For example, if you're in congress or a senator, no more right to privacy. Make it mandatory to live with bugs, cameras, mics, everywhere.. I don't care if you're on the porcelain throne, smile, you're on candid camera.

If they end up off camera at all, for any reason at all, and a crime comes out they swear no knowledge of, they are presumed guilty unless proven innocent.

Ideally, you also forfeit your right to life. This is the public "safety valve". If you're a banker who screwed over the economy and your public disapproval falls past a certain point, instant death. This will ensure no public figure takes the risk of displeasing the public with back room antics, real life puzzagates, none of it.

Sure, it's not easy to think of killing an innocent man. But, the powerful are hardly "innocent" men.

Just a few musings. Comments.

Sounds like you've been attending classes at Palpatine University.

Social media has made public disapproval so easily attainable too. I wouldn't be comfortable with leaving matters of life and death to the court of public opinion. People are stupid yo.

This is probably the most disgusting post I've ever seen from you, CDTM. Hopefully, you're just trolling and don't genuinely believe all this shit you just said. If you actually are serious, then I will repeat to you (at least I think it was you) what I've said to you in a previous post recently: you should move to China, North Korea, or even some shitty muslim country in the ME since you hold such anti-american sentiments (and yes, pretty much everything you just said there goes against American ideals/principles).

People have certain inalienable rights that should NEVER, under any circumstances, be taken away from them no matter how corrupt or "evil" they are in your eyes.

I'm sure you think that a person like Donald Trump should never be allowed into power again simply because he doesn't share your political views but I bet you think that Hillary Clinton, who is practically the spawn of Satan , himself, should be allowed lol. Who should get to make the decision about who exactly gets to be in power and who is "too evil" to be allowed in? "Enlightened" leftists, such as yourself? LOL.

If you say "well, the majority should decide". Well, if the United States really was a "democracy" as so many idiots think it is, then that would be true. Fortunately, we live in a Constitutional Republic which means people have certain inherent rights that can never be taken away from them (at least not legally) no mattter how many people think they should be.

I thought about something similar but it just cannot work. They need to poop, sex, and sleep, too. Shower, etc. You can't just expect them to shit in front of live-stream broadcasts. Not everyone that wants to be a civil servant is also a pornographic exhibitionist.

But as far as their phones, offices, etc. being bugged and round the clock cameras? Yeah, why not. It is not quite that strict, now.

That's just for public officials. Similar body cams for cops, we should have a similar surveillance situation for politicians.

As far as private citizens who are rich? Nah. You can't do that.
