Convince me of your political philosophy.
#24
RE: Convince me of your political philosophy.
My idea stance is a bit mixed.

I believe all essential services should be government owned and run on a not for profit basis. By this I mean water, electricty, roads, public transport, telephone, post, waste disposal, health care etc.
My revolutionary idea about public transport is to make it free at the point of use and paid for by taxes. This would people take the bus rather than use my car because they have already paid for it! This should lessen human impact on climate change and make the roads faster as people use mass transit rather than personal transport. I would not ban personal transport but who'd have a car if all the trains and buses were free?

Apart from that I'd allow capitalism but with employees getting a living wage.

My main politcal point would be "don't be a dick" or look at the current PM of Australia is doing and do the opposite.

It seems Australia have voted in a massive arsehole.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
