My suggesting is take Jim Bell ands his 'assinine-nation politricks' and move to the island imagined in Lord of the Flies. May the most murderous child win.
The murderous child seems almost like an internal problem among players... mobsters, rivals, enemies, Hatfield McCoy, etc. That always exists and is relatively self contained. Now an Assassination Politics instance operating in either autonomous mode, or in a "managed" mode for or devolving into sick bloodsport profit that raptures on humanity's tendencies therein, a distributively supported TV gameshow straight out of fiction memes "Let's bid $random human for $20k Alex"... these modes would have some real problems regarding innocent people getting originally harmed. That's different from say a distributed "fair" Hammurabi Code. And different from the original harm happening everyday news in essentially one on one unrelated and first events. Not much improvement happens there without lots of outreach, cultural education, hippie love, etc. The bloodsport and actions of Governments and even Corporations, their force against voluntary choices following no harm... would surely end as their workers quit them in droves. The question herein is which sport is worse, better, or more easily solveable or minimized, and by what means... Govt's or the Gameshow's. Does not the potential, and even propensity and or eventuality for sport (as history shows), make both Govt and AP very difficult to recommend, and essentially impossible to recommend as "pure" things.
