It's For the Kids

Several years ago I helped my son install an underground electrical fence around his yard.  He had just moved and his dog was wandering off.   A special collar is put around the dog's neck and when he crosses the line of the fence emitting a small electrical current the dog would receive a mild shock and not cross the fence.  Eventually the dog learns the boundary and won't cross the line even when the power is off.

This may seem cruel, but after a few little jolts, the dog is better off than he would be if he got run over by the milk man.  He quickly learns his boundaries and stays within them.

Since the government is scaling down the importance of our space program, I am proposing that they fund some of these highly intelligent scientists to develop human "dog collars"  They could design these for various public officials and/or politicians.  These programs would evaluate their actions against their defined purpose and responsibility of the position.  Whenever they deviated from the core purpose, they would receive a little shock.  Eventually, they would do the "right thing". 

Once developed, I would like to see them installed on the BISD school board.
