While eating dinner with my family today, something suddenly hit me as the news blared one petty crime after the other at us.
The world would be such a better place if every human being was fitted with a microchip in their brain that could give them mild shocks or momentarily paralyse them if they ever broke the law, and a monitoring person to go with that, who spent their time watching all the different screens broadcasting from all the different chips. That way, no-one would be stealing anything, killing anyone, abusing anything, crime would be IMPOSSIBLE.
And then the second realization hit me...
I'm one death-ray away from evolving into a Bond-villain.
So yeah, needless to say, I very well comprehend the issues in such a near-apocalyptic scenario, but still...
No-one would be wronging each other.
Now gimme dat death-ray.
