Erasing Memory Research
California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger starred in a feature film called Eraser. Undesirable persons had their lives erased by the government as a form of punishment. In this report the government boasts of its research eliminating "debilitating memories," "traumatic memory," and "bad memories." Drugs and shock therapy are promoted to help heal those who have painful memories.
That would likely include memories of corrupt politicians and lies told by politicians. Santayana's advisory that those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it would be eliminated as well.
Here is one more example of what George Bernard Shaw observed: "The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Pre-Homeric Greek philosopher Cleobulous said, "The chief source of evil among men is excessive good."

In the Name of Right
In the Name of Right
Explaining the abuse of police power, New York Governor Eliot Spitzer said,
his administration "'allowed our passion to get the best of us,' They were
'fighting so hard for what we believed was right that we let down out guard.'"
(John Podhoretz, "The Humble Act," NYPost, August 10, 2007, page 31) Have these
small-minded politicians ever heard George Bernard Shaw's dictum, "The road to
hell is paved with good intentions?" Or Greek pre-Homeric Philosopher
Cleobulous's observation that "The chief source of evil among men is excessive
good?"
The lack of respect for New York Senator Joe Bruno and for the democratic
process indicates that these politicians are simply evil. The greatest harm
always appears in the name of good. Why are these superior men employed by "The
Steamroller" unable to simply follow the laws of the state and the US? Does
their superiority make them see what is more important than obeying the law and
their oaths of office?
