The whole better world with less enforcement is an awful idea that won't work. People in general are too greedy and will harm others just so they can get ahead/have more profit. Regulation and enforcement of it is necessary.

I don't know man. We don't know what the future holds.

You're probably right about our immediate life times, in which politics won't change much (aka remain conservative)

I can hypothesize all sorts of social reform, revolutions, spiritual growth, new technologies, or even adopting politics from extraterrestrial civilizations. So never say never.

you are right about not knowing what the future holds but letting the flood gates open based off of current trends would send us into ruin so quickly.

Democratic. I don't really follow politics much, if I'm not working I try and actually enjoy myself. I've been told I'm a Socialist on some levels. Meh.

I really don't like the party system much. If anything it just turns things into a clique war and I'm so not about that kinda crap. I also hate voting. Honestly I don't want to be involved in the government. I mean I'm happy I have that privilege... I just think it's ridiculous how much people have to argue with one another for things that should be basic human rights. I guess I'm dreaming of a world where no one has to fight for anything and it's all just dandy. Why can't it all just be dandy?

Greed.

As long as money is involved in anything, it can't just be all dandy.

I understand apathy towards politics but politics affect everything in your life even if you don't realize it.

Also the with the voting thing, if you voted locally. You would see the effects of how voting can change things.

That's why we need to go split rent at a beach front shack on some hidden away Hawaiian island where nothing happens except for coconuts and hurricanes, where we can get drunk and smoke weed all day with all the natives and white people who've escaped modern, urban civilization just like us. For work we'll either fix boats or serve drinks at the local spot with the bar open to the sea. You down?
