What do you trust more, people or computers?

Question

To fix this, we must work to design and build an all knowing, all seeing, super computer. We must give this computer full control of our lives. This includes: traffic, economy, forigen affairs, police action, ECT. This computer would not have our nature, and would be able to run a socialist community correctly and not become corrupt.

This computer would work for the good of the people. Any attempt to hack or disable the computer, or give it any human influence would in my mind be an act of terrorism and would be dealt with accordingly.

Just think, a glorious nation run with the pureaty and logic of a computer, and yet still have the heart of the people. This perfect government would not be like anything before it. I would name this system “Logical Socialist Decision” or LSD. This system could greatly improve any nation and help the world. We should all do our part to get all the nations to run on LSD. This is the perfect system, socialism with no corruption.

Answer 1

You've already asked this question in a different form.

Any "all knowing" computer would be programmed by all too imperfect humans.

Besides which, even if we could build this computer, why we would handicap it with such a poor idea. If the computer is so damn perfect, let it find the optimum system that respects human freedom and human rights.
