^^not that im a gay-basher, but generally gays are not a marginalized sector. the law looks only at sex but not gender. laws on women apply also to female gays. gay men are still considered men being part of our patriarchal society. i dont see any reason why they should be categorized as a sector. ubi lex distinguit noc nos distnguire debemos.

 

to noynoy: please just always uphold the supremacy of the law.

Just a thought:

 

Do we really need to make more laws? Won't it suffice to review the existing ones and rework them better to accommodate changes since their creation?

 

How about we zoom in a particular field. Let's take for example the country's labor laws. Parang napapansin ko lang kasi karamihan sa mga employee union sagaran. They would quote this and that, without care on how the employer can meet the demands. Hindi ba nila naisip na as the employer, they also need to project the cost they'll need to maintain and function?

ako eto...... Pag nasagasaan ang isang bata, lalo na yung mga anak ng squatter habang naglalaro sa kalsada, wala dapat liability ang driver at hindi dapat manghingi ng kahit na anong compensation yung magulang nung nasagasaang batang squatter, dahil ang kalsada ay para sa motorista at pedestrian, hindi ito playground na pwedeng pagkakitaan. bagkus dapat makulong pa ang mga magulang ng nasabing batang squatter dahil bottom line, kapabayaan nila kung bakit nasagasaan ank nila. sasabihin ng iba "Eh kumag pala si Heatseeker, sino bubuhay sa mga nasabing batang squatter habang nakakulong ang mga magulang?" isa lang ang sagot jan, ibigay sila sa kustudiya ng simbahang katoliko tutal sila naman tong sabi ng sabi na magpakarami at tutol ng tutol sa RH Bill, para ma-realize nila yung hirap ng pagpapalaki sa mga batang hindi planado ng magulang. All children should be included in this law, special mention lang mga batang squatter sakin kasi sila pinakamaraming naglalaro sa lansangan na nasasagasaan.

Call me an a-hole if you will but I believe that:

 

Prostitution should be legalized. Corresponding health cards should be required (same as the porn industry abroad) to make sure that prostitutes are tested regularly for diseases.

 

Non-tax paying citizens should NOT be given the right to vote. Uneducated and scum breeding people have had their way long enough. It's time for the hard working citizens to take control of who sits at the throne.

 

Politicians across the board should be given MINIMUM WAGE. This way, public servants are INDEED public servants. This would also help detect corrupt officials as their pay can only support a certain lifestyle.

There should be a law to phase out jeepneys and tricycles out of our metropolis and major cities.

 

The Jeepney Franchise Rationalization law should have the following features:

 

1.Jeepney operations shall be allowed only within franchises in provincial towns and barangays. They shall not be allowed to operate as a mode of public transport in cities and the metropolis.

 

2.Jeepney owners should be forced to either join or form a corporation or a cooperative before they can operate their unit for public transport.

 

3.Provincial town transport franchises shall be awarded only to these corporations or cooperatives, who should have proven capability to manage passenger load scheduling and trip dispatching, and building of jeepney terminals. This should do away with the antiquated barker system whose aim is only to cram hapless passengers into jeepneys before dispatching them.

 

4.Minimum specification shall be defined in terms of comfort, safety, and reliability of the jeepneys. It should be mandatory to scrap units that are 10 years old and above.

 

 

The Tricycle Franchise Rationalization law should have similar features except that their operation and franchise should be limited to provincial inter-barangay transport only, and should not operate in towns, which are reserved for jeepney operations. This law would keep tricycles from plying the National Highway.

The goverment should abolish the legislative branch for the simple reason that we have too many laws

already and that most of it is not even implemented or exercised. Let's learn first to follow the law

before crafting more laws. There's no point making more laws when no one or barely a few follow them.

 

Even Ping Lacson does not adhere to the law just like most of them in the Senate & Congress. Malaki

pa matitipid ng gobierno at malaki din mababawas sa corruption.

This is a good amendment http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/breakingnews/nation/view/20110420-332273/Bill-against-dummies-filed-in-Senate

 

To quote "With the Senate investigation into alleged military corruption all but wrapped up, Senator Jose “Jinggoy” Estrada has filed a bill to prevent public officials from amassing ill-gotten wealth and hiding it through “dummies.”

 

Estrada wants to amend RA 6713—the Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees—to include the penalty of dismissal for an official “who places any of his or her assets in the name of a dummy."

 

But the problem with this is that people who would investigate government officials who uses dummies would just be facing bureaucratic wall after wall unless the Freedom of Information Bill is passed...

abolish partylist system. Its a redundancy to district representatives. Sectoral representations should be covered already by district representatives while the governors take charge on their local constituents.I do not see long term importance of the sectoral representations. Their specific and unique concerns can be addressed already through their national organizations representing them without the burden of taxpayers money and the creation of special concerns committee to focus on their specific concerns. (Just thinking loud)

we have enough laws already ... i'll propose an amendment to the penalties. far more severe and unreasonable for the crimes committed.

 

(1) crime of Plunder - if found guilty. sequester ALL assets, death by PUBLIC stoning and imprison immediate family.

reason : the way it goes, it's extremely profitable to engage in corruption in this country.

 

(2) road accidents by public transpo - resulting in death > automatic death sentence if found guilty. Bus/PUJ operators franchise suspended for a 2 years. resulting in damage to properties > driver get a 5yr suspension, owner gets a 2year suspension if accidents per year exceeds 1.

 

(3) unruly drivers during a traffic jam. those who cut and go against the flow resulting in more jams - by all means DPWH should bulldoze those erring vehicles with or without the passengers clear of the demarcation line.

 

(4) petty thieves, robbers, = 1 fingerless for every offense

 

(5) heinous crimes - death by SLOW electrocution. prior to that a 1day 'affair' with the victims kin (anything goes).

 

(6) trash throwers - caning at the nearest MMDA/police station. no need for fines. it only goes to fatten some directors wallet. caning is anti-corruption.

 

(7) death penalty be reinstated. it's a waste of taxpayers money to feed criminals. either they go free or they're fried.

 

(8) a 500meter both ways FREE road k*ll zone on areas with overpass - meaning it's legal to runover any living things on this FREE zone. no amount of warning billboards will stop these retards. the city spends millions per pedestrian bridge, either they use it or not build it.

 

(9) under a senate inquiry expressly authorized by the president - constitutional rights are waived. everytime a witness utters 'i don't recall', 'i exercise my right to ...', the Sgt at Arms should remind the witness by breaking a bone in his body.

 

 

imagine a city where criminals are afraid. so afraid that when caught they wish to remain inside the prison bars and not on the streets.

Road Users' Tax as Disaster Relief Fund? WTF?!!!

 

News item:

“In view of the onslaught of typhoons that the country regularly faces, Sen. Ramon “Bong” Revilla Jr. pushed an additional measures, which include the use of the Motor Vehicle Users’ Charge (MVUC) to address the effect of calamities.

The senator expressed confidence that the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) Act of 2010 (Republic Act 10121)will reduce the number of casualties and damage to properties brought by calamities and disasters.”

 

My take on this:

 

The MVUC Law was crafted for the specific purpose of providing a source of funds for the maintenance of national roads.

 

It is an equitable law because it is those who benefit from the infrastructure – the road users – who are paying for the maintenance of the roads.

 

These past years, I have seen the positive effect of the road users’ tax on the good quality and proper maintenance of our national roads. Now the fund is in danger of being diverted to other politically motivated expense.

 

Sen. Revilla would want to get hold of that money to diverts its use to disaster relief. He should find other ways of raising funds for disaster relief.

 

Keep your dirty hands off the road users’ tax!

All person's wishing to enter into high-position government service must first be castrated.

 

Quote From Wikipedia about castration done in ancient China

 

"It is said that the justification for the employment of eunuchs as high-ranking civil servants was that, since they were incapable of having children, they would not be tempted to seize power and start a dynasty. In many cases, eunuchs were considered more reliable than the scholar officials. A similar system existed in Vietnam.[23]"

 

 

However, this would require castration at an early age, so implementation would be problematic.
