I LIKE PETA AND THINK THAT SCIENCE IS EVIL
http://www.cnet.com/news/holy-fark-drew-curtis-is-running-for-kentucky-governor/

Maybe Lowtax could run for Governor of Missouri or at least be a Mayor somewhere!

quote:

"I'm running for governor because if I get elected, the vicious cycle of influence money in politics grinds to a halt," Curtis wrote in a post announcing his candidacy on (where else?) Fark. "I don't have 'beliefs' on issues of economics. I'm more or less agnostic on social issues. And I'm far more excited about retooling the executive branch to better interface with customers than anything else. The boring stuff is the most important stuff. It doesn't grab headlines but it's the part of being governor I really want to sink my teeth into."

What is the boring stuff? If he's serious I would think he would have a better platform than "I don't really 'believe' in any of your issues, but I would like for politicians to be more accessible to the people that hate them"

Yes every governor should run his state like a tech start-up.

I hope he wins. Best case scenario he actually does what he says and somehow overhauls the nuts and bolts part of the government (that he has jurisdiction over anyway) to be more responsive to serving the community and all the career politicians look like complete charlatans and frauds since apparently managerial tasks arent that difficult after all. Or he really sucks and fucks everything up and everyone gets to laugh at Kentucky more than usual

I actually kind of like him saying that he doesn't have "beliefs" in economic issues because it implies it's not something that's about opinions. I wish we had more people who treated government as something that's supposed to come up with solutions to problems rather than just sorta go with what popular opinion wants.

But, in general, that involves publicly acknowledging that the voter isn't nearly as smart as they think they are.

*declares a desire to separate money from governance*

*unironically refers to the citizens he would potentially govern as "customers"*
