Do you have any political views that a lot of people you know disagree with?

So America is corrupt? What a sad view. I totally disagree. I believe we have had great presidents in the past.@Stigmata

@Stigmata Not all. The honest ones get taken out.

@SimplyTracie There might be something about politics, in lying. The convention no one can live up to might set that up. But it varies by country, my country is now laundered in a scandal where the PMO pushed the Attorney General to, essentially, abscond the corporation from criminal activity.

@Carazaa The entire system is sad. I'll vote when my vote counts for something.

How would you change it?

@Carazaa There's no changing the current system. It would have to be rebuilt within a resource-based economy rather than a monetary-based one. It's not that there wouldn't be any corruption at all within a resource-based economy, but there would be far less, and democracy would have a chance to prevail. What we have at present, is a portrayal of democracy. And as long as people keep buying into the portrayal as the real thing, nothing is going to change.

@in10RjFox Much longer ago that that actually, but yes.

@PhoenixPhail true.. just as part of speech.. time for intellectual currencies like science $ , engineering $, and so on as against us$, euro$ etc.

@bijouxbroussard Its easy fixed. Census rolls make everyone registered to vote unless excused. The usual suspects like being in jail or too sick to attend can serve as excuses. Dont vote, you get the opportunity to provide an excuse. Postal or absentee votes take care of the rest. No excuse . You get a fine.
This isnt an idle idea. Voting is the responsibility of every citizen as their side of the freedom/responsibility bargain. If you dont live up to your side you cant expect the elected officials to take you seriously.. AND THEY DONT!.

@whowasthatmaskedman In [i]my[/i] case, you’re preaching to the choir. I’ve voted in every election since I was 18, to honor my ancestors who didn’t have that privilege. But our jails are already overcrowded, so I don’t see what you propose happening anytime soon.

@bijouxbroussard Neither do I. It doesnt suit the powers that be. Remember that old saying. "All that is needed for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing." Apathy is easy.

@bijouxbroussard Tbh I don't actually know anyone who [b]supports[/b] illegal immigration 🤷‍♂️

@QuixoticSoul I do know some people who don’t think countries like the U.S., Canada or Australia have the right to keep people out because they were all founded by European immigrants or their descendants.
