3 laws of Neocon Robotics:
1. A neocon Robot may not harm neocon goals, or, through inaction, allow a neocon goals to come to harm.
2. A neocon robot must obey the orders given to it by neocon leaders, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A neocon robot must protect its own existence, as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.


The reason that neocons appear to be against science in general is because their beliefs are unsupportable by any rigorous examination. The neocon 'philosophy' is simply a cover for organized public looting.
They would like to help with education, but no one is paying them to help with education. What kind of message would it send if they gave away something? They would like to have protected New Orleans, but the neocon were not paid to protect New Orleans. The revenue to government is one thing, but the neocons were not paid!
The neocons want a weak government, with a strong military and a strong prison system. This way the neocons can easily control a world class enforcement system, without the pesky costs involved.
