And like I said, you are SO good at deciding the future of other people!

I'm telling you, we need some sort of job for you, like Supreme Decider of Good and Right.

I'd vote for you--but wait a minute, how would I know who to vote for? Uh-oh--we have a problem here. We can't have elections, because that implies that people are rational enough to decide their own fate, so we need a different sort of government... Hmm, perhaps, yes--we need a Dictator. Supreme Dictator of Good and Right--then, you won't be accountable to the arbitrary whims of the voting public, since they don't know what's best for them, anyway!

I've got it--we can annex Iraq, and then make it like Puerto Rico! Run by the United States, but nothing messy like representation in Congress or anything like that. And we can install a Supreme Dictator to tell the people how to act and behave. Man, am I glad we had this discussion, because we've just solved the whole Iraqi mess!

When their "decisions" effect MY life, I sure will have a say.
