Nothing in politics eh?
I feel so special.
Anyway, what are your political views and why?
Personally, my views are universally that of pragmatism and the scientific method. I do not put blind faith in, nor adhere to in any way, any ideology. I think the most viable systems should be tested and those which prove themselves to be most successful should be implemented on a larger scale.
But of course that mainly applies to economic politics. In social politics I desire the most Libertarian possible.

I suffers from a major contempt for politicians. Getting into politics today is only a way to earn money and benefit from generous offer. Our politicians are not only ignorant, they are even to lazy to drag their lazy arses to the parlament and do their damn job.

But I guess it is an unnecessary evil which maintains democracy in the end. As long as a nation have free elections, it's important to vote otherwise we miss every of our chances to affect society.

It takes a long time to built up a democracy but it goes fast to demolish.

I am to the left.

I think it's important to keep our wellfare state, with a large well educated population intact. But unfortunately seems our present goverment do everything to sink a large amount of the population into poverty and lowpay jobs by make it difficult for those kids who might fail in school in an young age, to come back later in life through evening schools e.g.

Our primeminister was confronted by this issue by an before the elections and he responded; "Well I had the same problem and and have to improve my grades...öh...but in your case I guess you have to choose another career..."

I mean he admitted that he improved his grades by study in evening school, when he became older because he **** failed in the gymnasium but he hesitates not to happily deprive forthcoming generations the same opportunity!

Choose what career, by the way? Becomea  cleaner in his tax subsidized service sector? My Gawd I hate him!

I like watching the interplay of different bodies of power as if watching tornadoes and other turbulent weather phenomena.  Its good reality T.V. but not to be taken too seriously.

The thing about people who are seriously into poltics that is funny is how many of them fail to see how opposing views aren't so opposite when it comes down to it.

The right holds down and protects social foundations, the left brings in the necessary fresh blood and innovation to keep the system from stagnating.  All the different perspectives come together to create the rich and dynamic society that we have. I like to occupy the space where it is possible to observe the interplay, which requires not getting too bogged down in any single camp.

I am a Rightwing radicle, racist, biggot, hate monger, anti-middle class, gun toting hood wearing hillbilly, anti-choice goon, Neocon, etc.


Also known as a Conservative.  

Because I wholeheartedly believe you need to earn your keep.  As it's said " We have the right to Life, liberty, and persuit of happiness" Or if you actually know history, "Life, Liberty and the right to property".  This Country was founded on the premis that you have the right to earn what you want and you have the right to keep it.

I feel the same!

I mean, that we don't have to worry about that the money we earned will be eaten up by horrific school fees or medical bills, because you happened to be terrible sick in a period of your life.

It also feels pretty good to be released from a pressure to save money to our kids future education. I mean, it's the student's marks, which means talent, lust to study and hard work, which will be result in the final decision if they have a potential to get in to the University, or not - not the size of the wallet.

I **** love my country and the opportunities it give us!
