I mean, why not? Seems lucrative enough. But one has to enter politics with a bang. Splash. Make a commotion. And I know exactly just what I'll do. Take care, as in "taking care" of stray dogs: I noticed an increase in stray dogs recently both in the large metropolitan area I live in (highest cost of living in Romania) and the countryside. I mean I lived through communist times and there were no stray dogs then, I can testify. Basically the hunters had a free license to shoot them outside the village area. Apparently they still do but it's complicated, animal rights associations and shit. Well, if we can't go by the spirit of the law, we'll apply the letter. Which, it might even be true in the whole EU, but here says something like: - Any dog that doesn't carry a microchip tag has no owner. - Any dog that has an owner (thus is microchipped), has to behave or else, the owner (and not the dog) will face penal consequences should the dog attack someone. So now on the stray dogs, without an owner, the law says: - If a stray dog is reported by a citizen to the town hall (essentially stands in the way of said citizen, attacked them and so on), the town hall has the obligation to take that dog to a dog pound. - At the dog pound the dog is to be treated in a humane manner. For 14 days. During which, the dog pound advertises said dog in various media (unspecified, I'll make a billion making the "official" dog pound software but that's just business). If the dog owner or a dog owner (willing to adopt the dog, microchip it and assume potential criminal charges if the dog attacks a human while in his custody) doesn't show up, the dog is euthanised in a humane manner. That's it. Simple as a computer program. Follow me in the future for how easy it is "finally solve" the problem of stray dogs
An experienced politician would just use pen, paper and metal filing cabinets. This maximizes bureaucratic inefficiencies. And, therefore gets more votes by creating jobs for other useless bureaucrats. However, as someone who has just decided to enter the business, you can be forgiven for this simple mistake. You have my vote but I need you to promise me some government largess.
Dogs, over population, euthanasia, microchips, antisocial or political inconvenience. Elect me to run our utopia, there are effective solutions. Knock, Knock a brief struggle and another problem disappears. No taxes for us, as a CCP wanna be we skim 20% of our GDP profits to bribe the entire world. My campaign slogan is Take Take Take.
