I reject this idea for a fairly simple reason. I want to be in control of my own life and my own decisions, but due to lack of social skills I'm vulnerable to manipulation. Without a zero-tolerance policy on liars, I would rapidly be manipulated into losing what little control of my own life remains.

If you have no social skills do you have enough status and enough friends to still have friends to hang out with with a zero-tolerance policy.
