a broad-scale movement aimed at keeping the kinds of people who enjoy punching the poor in the face away from political and economic power.

great idea, but how?

psychotherapists on every corner, (next to the lottery ticket sellers)?

emotional intelligence SATs?

old kindergarten cctv footage of kids pulling wings off flies used as filter for political aspirants?

i have some weird vision of how they test for peoples' gay tendencies, showing them porn and seeing what they get excited for...

showing people getting bribes and shilling for invisible hucksters and seeing who perks up?

you must have some ideas on how to effect this noble dream, or are they all in the next book?
