Every congress critter should have someone in their office who is an expert at the "try to break this" game. 

When I try to explain that to people, I usually say they need to hire a top notch Dungeons and Dragons Min Maxer to come up with exploits.

That reminds me of one of my favorite books from grad school: Counterexamples in Analysis. The mindset necessary to enjoy that stuff is quite similar of that of really good software testers, namely “How can I get this to break, to really screw it up?”
