Ideas for new political parties

Posted by David Hardy · 10 November 2006 11:06 AM

Wikkipedia has a page devoted to frivolous political parties.

I particularly like the Rhino Party of Canada (at one point the country's fourth-largest party), whose platform included:

repealing the law of gravity,
reducing the speed of light because it's much too fast,
paving Manitoba to create the world's largest parking lot,
tearing down the Rocky Mountains so that Albertans could see the Pacific sunset, or moving them one metre west as a make-work project,
making all sidewalks out of rubber to prevent inebriated people from hurting themselves when they fall down
adopting the British system of driving on the left; this was to be gradually phased in over five years with large trucks first, then buses, eventually including small cars and bicycles last,
selling the Canadian Senate at an antique auction in California,

The Right Side driving phased in over five years made me laugh out loud.

Sometimes I think that would help here as well. At least it may thin out the traffic a little.

Rubber sidewalks are becoming fashionable. They're made from recycled tires. Tree roots don't buckle them, joggers report less impact stress. A rubber sidewalk can be installed with a base depth of only 2 inches.
