Someone else is paying for the license, but I do understand the point you are making.

Yeah the government paying the government

So, remembering that this is soapbox material, what do you propose?
Ending the government?

Belgium tried that and it seemed to work quite well. Is the country any better since you got one back again (or two if you count EU)?

They didn't. Belgium did not turn to anarchy, rule of law was still in place, as was the government. Yes, the people that were chosen to represent them were having trouble with forming a cohesive group, but that does not mean that government was abandoned.
There are enough places where anarchy is still the norm. I'd like to challenge anyone who thinks that "no government" magically solves anyything to explain it to me there. It will be a very short discussion.

It would be cheaper to pay crims £40,000 a year than to lock them up.
There is logic for you.

Too expensive. You need to practice moar[^].

We need an island somewhere we can dump them. And leave them to it. They can farm, make their own society, whatever they like. Just as long as they f*** off and leave decent people alone.

We tried that already, several times.
Since we all know black holes are actually portals, we should send the B-ark to Sagittarius.

The Dutch tried it did they? Where did you send them?
We made the odd decision of sending them to a paradise, New South Wales.
|
|
|
|

..ehr, we gave 'em a letter of marque and titles, and did not keep track where they went much. In a similar way we lost track of New Amsterdam, but according to recent news it is a flourishing town by now.
Can't do that with modern criminals though. At least not until we're really going to Mars

Did you send criminals to New Amsterdam? Didnt know that.

Change your definition of criminal. Any heathen is worth money to the right ship. Any drunk from the street will do.
Where they gonna run when they wake up the next morning, miles from the coast? There's no telling what we shipped, the only thing we do know is how to cook a great tasting dodo.
