    I want a lying as a representative of the people tax. Kinda like a swear jar, but for public representatives and their official channels.

      No I want that to be a capital offense.

      If they’re able to prove in a court of law that you knowingly lied to constituents, off with your head.

        It will be abused by the opposite party who will claim small lies count and start lopping off heads. Similar to the “fraud” charges the doj is trying to use against comey and james.

        Fake charges are bullshit when they can take money and time from you. Imagine if they can take your life instead.

        The death penalty isn’t the end all be all that people think since the wind can blow the other direction and power swings with it.
