Quote:But as for the monarchy thing. I get some dont like it here either, due to tax money reasons. I guess i like it though due to symbolic part of it, its just kinda interesting to me. Absolute monarchy i dont like however though.My objection isn't to taxes or symbolism. I note that monarchy can only be as good or as bad as it's monarch. You don't see me pinning my kids future to the success of the new king charles, eh? Neither are the brits. They have a symbolic monarchy because they understand the historical problems of monarchy. If it was working great it wouldn't be a ceremonial position.
So, think of the dimmest bulb in your family tree...and realize that under a monarchy, that bulb could be expected to be the light of the world. Nothing else is required to explain the failure of monarchy, imo.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
