Re: Troops and Happiness question
Men with guns running around the planet inforcing their will on the populaitons is not what I would consider "improving happiness." We all know from many reports that many of the planetary police forces are currpt bastards who prey on the unarmed citizans of the worlds they have been tasked with protecting. They take young women and have their way with them and get away with it because any one who tries to stop them gets beaten, shot, or sent to prison on some trumped up bogus criminal charge. They extort money from the populations as a "protection" fee, while doing nothing to curve the criminal elements that pleague our worlds.
Freedom of speech is a joke on most planets as we all know. The police, the very people who are paid to "serve and protect" are the only ones with guns so they serve and protect only those that can afford to pay their fees and all of the others are treated like slaves.
Just try and form a rebellion on one of these worlds and see what happens. You'll end up dead like most of the homeless children have. No, happiness given on the heal of oppression is not true happiness, its imposed acceptance that hope has died.
Death to the police! Power to the people!
