Zetetic Elench

When having lunch earlier I was thinking of going on a massive rant suggesting that everyone on benefits should commit serious crimes as protest against the government's reforms. Then I realised: This is exactly what they want. The Conservative party/government want to criminalise the poor and make it illegal to be on benefits. They've a lready made it hard to apply for JSA by having an expensive phone line for everything and the proposed Universal Benefit is just more of the same. Just as Nixon couldn't make it illegal to be against the Vietnam War so he made it harder to use marijuana.   Just as Nixon couldn't make it illegal to be black so he made it harder to use heroin.

With regards to http://legalsmeagolandzeteticelench.blogspot.co.uk/2017/09/fan-theories-2.html  and http://legalsmeagolandzeteticelench.blogspot.co.uk/2017/09/a-few-statistics-on-culture.html   perhaps the first Orbital  builders were part of a conglomerate representing several panhuman civilisations. They could have any number of reasons for doing so: to make a gigantic point about inter-civilizational co-operation, as experimental art, as well as providing extra living space.  The point about Orbitals, from the perspective of an expanding and militarily suspicious civilisation, is that they are individually much easier to defend from space than a planet is. One can simply provide sensors throughout the base structure of an Orbital alongside a Hub or ship stationed at its exact centre. A planet would need to be surrounded by satellites or otherwise guarded by at least six warships. An enemy could simply play hide-and-seek against a single sentinel. Two Orbital Plates by themselv
