In the few years since I left school things have gone overboard safety concious. I went there the other day to discover warning tape around all the trees and water tanks ffs. When I went there (which was only like four years ago) we were absolutely nuts. We had "Scrag" (Which by the sounds of it you guys didnt have) and "Beat The Crap Out Of Bullrush".

Scrag is a game where one person has the ball and everyone does their utmost to injure them until they conceed and someone else gets the ball then you try and injure them.

The bullrush game was played by a few people being in the middle of a football field and a few people being on the edge and when the people in the middle said go you had to run across the field and their job was to beat the crap out of you until you go there or until you gave up.

Another popular game was jumping of of 6 or so metre high trees into the one beside it (there was a large line of them) and see how far down the line you could get before you fell down and got the crap beaten out of you by branches.

We also had full school brawls and cage fights (by taking the two soccer goals and putting them together) but I think I've rambled enough for one post.

When I was a kid, we played cops and robbers or cowboys and indians with real BB guns and shot each other, (No shooting in the face obcenity obcenity obcenity) and we didn't wear helmets but if you did get banged up and had a cut or some road rash, you damn sure didn't do so much as sniffle or whine about it cuz Mom or Dad would give you something to whine about, like a belt up along your backside and then they would get the iodine to pour in to your cut, so if you did get horribly mutilated, you didn't dare say anything, you just bit your lip and you stayed quiet about it. We played dodge ball and tether ball and did our best to give each other bloody noses and black eyes and had hertz donuts and gave two for flinching, only back in my day, two for flinching was usually a punch in the stomach followed by an uppercut to the jaw and if you were dumb enough to fall for it, you deserved it and nobody felt sorry for you including the old hag that was the school nurse, who said "Next time don't flinch you big blubbering baby!" Then we would go around and ask "what is the capital of Thailand?" and then you would say "Bangkok" as you gave somebody a swift kick in the nuts, but there was no running off and telling the teacher or an adult; you settled your scores like men: either kick the crap out of somebody or you would be the person everybody else was beating the crap out of.

Those were unkind times, but they made hard men. Now, everybody is a bunch of pussified nancies.

Here's the problem. The corporation leaders you are talking about aren't greedy enough! If they really wanted more money, rather than give themselves pay raises, they would expand. They would use the extra money to hire more people and extend their reach. It's when people get to a point in wealth where they lose ambition that the problems arise. Now I am finally begining to see why my system might not work. I assumed people would be greedier.

EDIT: [SARCASM]

These schools are obviously moving in the right direction. However, it's completely irresponsible of them to neglect the biggest danger to kids: bicycles. Far more kids get hurt or even killed riding bikes than playing tag, climbing playground equipment, or doing any other unreasonably dangerous activity. The duty of every responsible parent is to push for protection of our children from this lethal threat.

Protect our kids! Ban the bikes!

PS And I don't even need to mention other dangerous transportation devices such as rollerskates, skateboards, and skis. Even adults shouldn't be allowed to operate these devices without proper safety training and a license.

A friend of my brother's when he was a little kid once explained to him that, 'You have to drive fast to get to my house.' Presumably he only meant that a highway was involved, but we all imagined this kid's house permanently zooming along at high speed, which he had to match just to get in the door. And since then I've always liked the idea of living somewhere with not just a position, but a velocity.

So I want a volume of phase space for my country.

The decision is quite simple: do you think the government should be providing you with free education, roads, social safety net (unemployment, healthcare, retirement), prisons and police force, etc. If the answer is "yes", you have to pay for it in the form of higher taxes.
