Well I believe America runs best when it adopts ideas from both sides rather than leaning more towards the left or right. When it comes to social issues such as abortion and gay marriage I'm more liberal. As for who I support in the upcoming election I'll have to go with Mitt Romney. I think Obama has done an ok job as president. Sure he had a massive pile of ***** to deal with when he entered office but I mean the guy couldn't get anything done under a Democrat majority congress. His jobs bill was short term crap to boost his ratings. |

Well, I live in Australia and I can't really give any support to either Labor or the coalition. They both have way too many flaws to lead a successful government and spend all of their time scoring points off each other rather than actually thinking of policies. Labor recently had their "solution" to illegal asylum seekers declared unlawful by the High Court and can't get enough support to pass legislation to change the law. Not exactly a united government is it? They both seem inept at delivering a budget and Tony Abott just annoys me in general. As for my views on social issues, i'm pretty left leaning. I support gay marriage (although, over here both major parties are against it) and I think people should have the right to choose if they have an abortion (although I think it's morally wrong except in exceptional circumstances, but that's a discussion for a different day). It doesn't matter anyway, i'm only a resident here and not a citizen so I can't vote. |

Where to begin... There are so many problems everywhere it's almost impossible to say, "I'm a whatever" Libertarianism is a somewhat flawed ideology in my opinion. There are no natural rights. Rights change as time passes. Every right is man made, not naturally there and can change from time to time. It supports the whole "very limited government" thing. This makes outer and internal threats very high. When you push around the people protecting you and your families bad things will happen. Conservatism is also flawed. This ideology usually comes with the people that work harder are more successful which is complete bull*****. Our capitalistic tendencies seem to back this a lot, but it's completely useless. I tend to lean with socialism here that if everyone started off on square one, then the harder workers would be successful, but when you have Jill here who was left 2 million dollars to start a business and Jake here who has nothing but student loans to pay off, you already know who will probably be more successful. Liberalism is also flawed. Liberals tend to pick out the parts of other ideologies and "fix them" to their benefit. Person A has more money than me so Person A should give me enough to make us even. It sounds nice, but isn't realistic. Here are just a few examples. I usually tell people I'm liberal (Democrat/whatever) but I'm not naive enough to think it or any is perfect or "right".

No. How can you hate politics does that mean you just hate life in general? Because that's what politics basically is, how we all interact on a daily basis. Also how can you just say "be a rebel!" what are you going to rebel for? Eh are you just joking? |

Sad to say, I agree with the troll. To me politicians are just a bunch of sociopath control-freak morons constantly pulling society backwards. Politics always attracts the scum of the earth, the awesome people are all off being scientists/artists/engineers/writers/businessmen etc. Yet you shouldn't rebel for the sake of rebelling, you shouldn't violently rebel at all, they'll just point a gun at your head or try to bellittle anarchy even more by linking your foolish behaviour to the term (lack of government does not equal chaos, especially considering how chaotic global affairs tend to be with government. A society without rules is just silly, but you don't need a gun to enforce rules) Edited by SirParagon, Nov 18 2011, 12:32 AM.

Pretty much, lol. The funny thing is, that to rebel is also a political view, you are rebeling because of your political views, it's kind of hard to have a world without politics, weather you agree with politicians or not, you can't escpare politics, the majority of things are politics and not all politicians are the same, but those who are out spoken and might do something useful are never put into major positions. |

I like to call myself a Republican with a few liberal views in regards to society, so basically I'm a mixture. I plan on registering as either a Republican or an Independent; however, if I register as independent, then I'll most likely be voting for the Republican candidates, so there isn't much sense in that. Politics are interesting and very important in our society, but I don't necessarily like them, nor do I like politicians. I don't trust most of them to lead our country. I won't elaborate much on my reasons why for the sake of keeping this post short and simple, so ask me if you want to know. |

I feel the same way. Though I imagine my views are far more liberal than yours are. I look at some of the politicans and members of pariliament on TV and I read about them in the papers and I find it very difficult not to assume that they have a different motive than what they're stating openely. I've heard stories of various high up figures during the 1970's who were allegedly involved with rent boys, gangsters and swingers parties ect. I find it difficult to believe that they get up to anything different today, considering most are from the same backgrounds or related. |

Of course anarchy is a political view, like atheism is a view regarding religion. Fundamentally you cannot infiltrate the mafia and turn it to virtue - it doesn't matter how good an individual is, they will not be able to fix a morally corrupt system (as it has been for thousands of years). The state spins the lies of its own necessity, in truth it is a scourge unto society causing way more problems than it attempts to solve. Edited by SirParagon, Nov 18 2011, 02:20 AM.

So you hate the governments we have? What would you replace it with? Truth is, it doesn't matter what replaces our current system. Nothing's uncorruptable. You'd end up with the same dirty mess you have now. Just like what happened when democracy replaced Monarchy and Communism tried to replace Democracy. It's just human nature. Some people are bad and some people are good. You can have a theoretically flawless system but in reality, some people are scum and screw it up for their own selfish needs. So anarchy, communism, dictatorship. It doesn't make a difference. We're humans and we mess things up. The best thing to do is go for who you think is likely to do the least damage to the world and your country, even if you know they're gonna make a mess of it. Nobody's perfect.
