if the us took a page out of china's book.....

i was reading the odd news today, and a chinese woman was caught with heroin soaked panties and long johns. just the fact that a person would transport drugged soaked panties seems sorta ingenious to me.

hear me out on this one. "no officer ,that's not drugs that's making my panties soaking wet, that's my pee after i watched rocketman for the first time." what officer, in the us at least, would sniff the panties, and then maybe dab his finger in the goo to taste it and determine if it's pee or heroin and water? but apparently in china, they drug test your panties and then, to determine just how much drugs you have, they weigh them.

this is a simple enough process, just weigh the drugged panties, and then....get the eight of dry panties somehow and subtract the dry weight versus the wet weight. in the us, we'd probably send the panties to some kind of drug/panty centrifuge and separate the drug from the underwear. Then there would be tests to see how pure it was, only to find out that the drugs "mysteriously disappeared", thus throwing the case out of the courts due to a lack of evidence. and the fate of the panties? they were repackaged and sold at one of the many wal-marts in china.

but what really interests me is that if found guilty, this lady faces the death penalty.

at first i thought, that's way too hard core, but then i reconsidered.

if you knew that they would kill you if you dealed drug, would you be so willing to do so? my thoughts then went to the us. look at the failing war on drugs. weed is ever rampant, and it's pretty obvious that movies like "refer madness" don't stop the drug use. in fact, i was curious if weed would help my piano skills, but i decided that piano's for people that care about their musical studes a wee bit more than i do.

getting back on track, it's my opinion that drug sales would plummet if drug dealers were executed instead of being put in prisons were they can learn about other drugs to deal and ways to deal them. with execution, the drug dealers would know that the us was serious, that it kill everyone before the youth of america picked up the piano.

but let's not stop there. know how everyone says that child molesters should have their wangs cut off? what's stopping you? if the us took a page from china's book and stared cracking down with harsher rules and penalties, child molesters would all but drop off the face of the earth. but how to ge the kids to feel comfortable talking? how about a cash award if they tell the truth and they really were touched. now that whole "'i'll kill you" or "i'll die, and you don't want that do you?" line of reasoning won't work, cuz that kid's thinking "your ass is going down and now i can buy that x box 360 i've had my eyes on." but if they lie, they get something taken away. so they won't want to lie about being touched because then their toys would start disappearing. it's practically fool-proof.

but then again, such regulations would put the concept of american democracy at stake, and if you rpolitical system changed too much, the entire world economy would change. our system (political and economical) is so unique in comparison with the world, that changes would shift the way the world markets worked, affecting everything and everyone. not every country can be changed to match the "superior democracy" of the us, because then they would consume energy, oil, and other goods just as bad as the us does. that would not be cool, especially since global warming's already happening. it would just make it worse and make it happen faster. but, if the us started consuming like other countries, places were we get our products, like china, japan, madagascar, and other nations wouldn't have a market for the products anymore because the us is the largest consumer.

so i suppose it's best we don't follow suit with other countries, but now i'm concerned about the us making those other countries follow in our large, damaging footsteps......but it's late and i want to sleep.

though now i'm sure i'll dream of his holiness the dali lama wearing juicy and carrying a prada purse, with coach glasses and sunglasses while he sports his grillz....
