Curious, are you a Conservative, Libertarian, Liberal, Anarchist, Socialist, communist, fascist? :p
Where do your political leanings go?
I'm a pretty steadfast Social Democrat, by all means.
**** *****es get money is my political stance.Run for president pls.
this is asking for troubleHopefully people can just not be *****y and let people have their opinions without some silly arguments.
Let people do what they want, and socialism is stupid. Capitalism is good for weeding out successes and failures. I'm not saying we should let people starve on the street, but the whole "1% owns all the muneyz!!!!!" thing I think is stupid, that's just a byproduct of capitalism. Just because you suck at making money doesn't mean you deserve it.
I think totalitarian dictatorships are interesting too, not in the way that "we should run things like Stalin did!" but more of an interesting to talk about kinda deal.
Three toed ftw. Two toed are decent I guess, but they look kinda like pigs to me.Let people do what they want, and socialism is stupid. Capitalism is good for weeding out successes and failures.

Who in the world wants a low pressure shower head? I love mine, it's like a fire hose.

In my opinion: (1) pollution/climate change, (2) income inequality, (3) war.
These 3 are often tied together
Just curious how you tie these three together?

I consider myself a practical realist. Identify problems and solve them.
What are the most important problems facing the world today?
In my opinion: (1) pollution/climate change, (2) income inequality, (3) war.
These 3 are often tied together and all are exacerbated by exponentially increasing population, almost exclusively in the already-poorest, least advanced, and most-stressed areas of the world.
Those who defend the status quo are often the enemy to me, particularly in any area having to do with the accumulation and hoarding of financial resources. Those who advocate real progressive solutions (eg climate accords, Affordable Health Care, etc) to real immediate problems are the good guys.
Although I have always hated the Roman Catholic Church, I find Pope Francis's encyclical to be one of the most awesome and inspiring pieces that I have read in a long time. Just ignore the part about "The Hebrew God" and everything else is dead on. Any of you who have not read it (it's only 80 pages long) should do so.

For real? :p - I guess I'm on of those independents.Illuminati want my mind, soul, and my body.

that's pretty much off-the-chart left-wing fundamentalism.
The most left-wing the US Democrats have ever been is still more right-wing than even the most right-wing extremist parties back home have ever been. Barack Obama would be textbook unelectable and probably denounced as an extremist douchebag. We're genuinely not even in your political spectrum :p .that's pretty much off-the-chart left-wing fundamentalism.
Despite the deafening noise coming from the right, we did elect Barak Obama twice in a row.
I'm a "**** you for asking" kind of guy. Keep your nose on each issue and not in the business of people who aren't at your meetings, rallies, or other political gatherings.

government should be as small as possibleI hope you aren't moving to France.
government should be as small as possible
Call me crazy, but that idea makes me very anxious. I blame Firefly.government should be as small as possible
That quaint Luddite concept pretty much evaporated with Marconi's radio.
There needs to be a single planetary government because the human race cannot afford perpetual fragmentation.

I agree that the climate change issue has been swept under the rug for far too long. How would the global government form in the first place? I seriously doubt 7.3 billion people would all agree on a global authority.Call me crazy, but that idea makes me very anxious. I blame Firefly.government should be as small as possible

What about the idea of hundreds of smaller governments bickering for years while much bigger issues like climate change and our species' survival are basically ignored? Because that makes me anxious.

Of course not, so the machines forming it would just wipe out 95% of the humans that disagreed with it. See, problem solved!

Global governement cannot work,

I'd be honestly surprised we can last 1000 more years on this planet considering how we are destroying it, and how we are constantly for stupid/lobby reasons.
We're going toward gloval government anyway, but european union will soon see countries leaving it (uk, France being the most likely to do so).
Also when you watch how UN and various of those multinations org don't work, you don't want glob gov.

Well, there are hundreds of examples of smaller localized governments not working as well so what should we do?

That is correct too.
I wish I had the answers.
Getting rid of politicians sure shouldn't hurt that much.

But then who has to do the icky political jobs then?
The problem is that politicians are good at getting elected, but nothing else.That’s not a fair generalization. There are many politicians who are also very, very sharp policy analysts.
Expensive elections with unlimited corporate campaign contributions definitely complicate the job though.
