Jimbo 0 #1 November 8, 2003 Lately we've had our share of political threads, and the ensuing flame wars. Every is quick to discredit the Other Side, but what I've not seen so far are solutions to the problems you claim exists. So, here's your chance, if you were King for a day (or Queen, just for you Amazon), what would you do? How would you create the perfect republic, or whatever political system you think might work better? - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Nightingale 0 #2 November 8, 2003 I don't think a single person could solve anything... World peace is going to take a little effort on the part of every person. Sooner or later, we will realize that we either need to work together or we're going to end up blowing ourselves up...either way, the universe could be a better place.

skydyvr 0 #3 November 8, 2003 QuoteHow would you create the perfect republic, or whatever political system you think might work better? I'm no expert on the history of national governments, but as long as Man is governing Man, the US system of goverment has to be about as good as it can get. I'll make my case by simply refering to our rise to the top in just 200 short years. Our two party system rocks -- it causes enough gridlock to keep us steady, while still allowing room for obviously needed changes (women's rights, ending of slavery, etc.). Throw in the Constitution, and you have nirvana, well maybe not . . . . . =(_8^(1) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
