1. I hope you not advocating Free education.

2. Wrong...Because then the government is the one that will create all
the rights for the people. The more rights it creates the more control it has.

The church needs to be there to offset the power of the government just
in case.

3. What does that mean? Tax the rich and give to the poor?

4. Wrong...Abolish the states and it gives too much power to one
government. You can’t centralize government because power corrupts.

5. That's scary. Sorry Farmer but I'm taking your land and not
compensanting you for it because of the envirnoment.

You are voting for the Communist party!!!

Just because there’s a democracy doesn’t mean there won’t be dirtbags running the joint

Hugo Charvez Venezuela and Ahmadinejad of Iran springs to mind.

And I’m sure there are a ton of other democratic elected
nutcases throughout history.

And where do they come from…

They begin from “ underlying disenchantment, an individual’s thought, an inspirational leader”

Next thing you have is a bloated government controlling all aspects of life, and the more power you have the more chance it will corrupt.

Bingo…

There’s your 'evolution.'

Mandela? Gorbachev?
I understand your cynicism. However you offer no alternative to be constructive. How would you change it?
