Can I be your Minister of Technology? I'd be nice to have someone in the spot with some experience and understanding of how tech actually works.

One of my duties would be to sit in the back of the House or Senate, with an airhorn, while they are in session. Anytime someone says something blatantly technologically moronic - oh, like, for example, that they are going to "eliminate porn on the internet" - I'd blow the airhorn to let everyone in the room know that the right honorable speaker is lying and incompetent.

This is a service I will be proud to provide.
