I thought of this last night, and as long as there's a compelling excuse to make a topic of it, I figure I will.

The National Logic Party

Manifesto:
1. We want to establish a government that solves all problems as logically as possible.

2. It will be a given in any place that it applies that an action is wrong when it causes more harm then good.

2 1/2. Should one consent to a harmful act, the harm should not be considered harm by the legal system.

3: A crime is any wrong action as defined by the above, and only any wrong action as defined by the above.

4. Leaving the american court system as is otherwise(with one exception to be detailed later), we would establish as punishment for all repairable crimes(burglary, vandalism, etc.) the need to repair all damage caused, plus a slight extra fine to cover the hassel needed to get the criminal to pay.

5. Irreparible crimes (murder, rape, etc.) would be covered by having the criminal need to prevent one instance of said crime occuring, including taking measures to make certain that he never commits that crime again.

6. Laws that would not automatically result from this system but would be good for the country (such as the minimum wage) would be proposed by civilians. Voting for these would proceed up to more populated areas(precinct then state then country, etc.) until the law loses a vote, at which point it takes effect in all areas where it won the vote, assuming it does not violate the premise in point 2.

7. Due to the above point, there should be no need for Congress or the president and they would be abolished by this system.

8. Due to the fact that neither a human judge nor a human jury is completely impartial, we will also include a computer in the court system in an effort to maintain impartiality. Two out of three wins, assuming the decisions are exactly the same. If not, they will have to be reconciled to the best of the court's ability.

9. We recognize that computers cannot currently consider every possible outcome of a decision, however we note that neither can the human brain and that hasn't stopped us from trying to piece politics together anyway.

10. We hold that the need for 10 points or more in a manifesto by the NS elections is stupid :p.

Supporters:Sheni.

Any suggestions and/or problems with this?
