I think you could reeducate leftists by simply constructing i gigantic circular Kafkaesque DMV in the middle of the Mojave Desert. No extreme cruelty just surly agents of the state passing the buck and making them sign umpteen forms and redo it even with the most minor error

You have more faith in human nature than I do. Absolutist France and Tsarist Russia were pretty close to what you describe, but the preferred revolutionary solution was "MOAR GOVERNMENT!!!"

Im talking just make a gigantic Truman show for just teaching them how dumb the state i You could even have a secret black free market with actors to show the contrast Sometimes teaching takes creativity

I like this concept. You just tell them that to leave, they need to see the lady at the desk and follow the process. But the process is an endless maze to nowhere. When they finally freak out and run for it, you show them to the bus and send them home. Brilliant!
