Not that a solution would ever be implemented or that politicians would ever evolve into better people, but how would a Game Theorist approach this nasty problem?

Certainly not by allowing a specific court to judge politicians for every political decision that it doesn't like. That would be a good recipe for civil war.

I still have notes from Durant's "The Lessons of History" so I should comb through these replies using this source, looking for contradictions.

This thread is perhaps an outlier as to the Level of Nesting.
