I'm with these guys.

To be more specific on my positions:

Economics: Centre-Right, Neoliberalism, free market and trade etc.

Social: Moderate generally. Don't really give a flying fudge about Christian "moral" issues like abortion of gay marriage. Keep your religion in your church, I say. But I suppose I'm pro-choice and support equal rights for gay couples and whatnot.

Environment: I'll probably give the planet the benefit of the doubt on the whole climate change issue. Nothing wrong with a cleaner environment. Support Australia's upcoming emissions trading scheme.

Foreign Policy: Hawk, to the say the least. Strongly support the Australian-American alliance. Support Australian involvement in Afghanistan and supported our prescence in Iraq till Rudd pulled our combat troops out.

Shas: I don't mean to be rude, but I don't see that as being practical. What do you propose would be done with all the current governments (or one particular country) in order to achieve that?

I understand where you are coming from Dark Phoenix and though it would have to vary from region to region I am a proponent of Non-Violent Revolution, using means such as Protest, and even using the government it's self to dismantle it, through establishing education standards, transferring the Private ownership of production to public, and anyother way that is needed to create the society. I honestly don't see this happening in the near future, I just believe it is the best political ideology because it allows the most freedom and provides for equality.

Moi, Je vais un supportre la Meritocracy! I believe that the world should be run by a collective group of people, each with varying views on the world but with a high intellect, representing their country in a World Parliament. I realise there are certain, "power-hungry, oligarch"-related issues with this radical belief (see "Our Friends from Frolix 8" by Philip K. d**k) but surely there's at least 10 people in each country intelligent enough to realise what the world REALLY needs.

That is: An equal distribution of food. Solid education for every child. Decent minimum wages. Equality for all. A 10 hour day. Free Healthcare. Pacifism. Development of technology. Etc...

Some "green" changes might be good too. I'm a skeptic, myself, but minimizing CO2, Sulphur Dioxide, Methane, etc emmisions won't exactly hurt the environment, will it now?

So bread lines and it would be illegal to work 2 jobs in a days work?
