A lot of people say Libertarians, or the government. I think its the Bar exam. Not that its bad, but that Lawyers take it. Just Lawyers. . Wouldn't it be great if politicians had to take an 11th grade exam. I think alot of our problems would be solved. And we can have special cameo questions. . Q:"Can rape get you pregnant?" . A?:"Well according to doctors..." (<-even if he had been right he still would have lost equal points for generalization and lack of argumentative charity) . Ok that was vindictive, but for real. I do think a political bar exam to make sure they where educated enough to take their positions would really help. At least then out politicians will know where babies come from, what socialism is, and that mac and cheese is not "Some black holiday food". Stupidity and the reluctance to make progress due to outdated belief systems that serve to restrict expression and scientific development. Furthermore, people's fear of change is forcing society into two camps those for progress and who realize that we are becoming a global society and those who feel like we need to hold tighter to our processes that have worked well in the past. Unfortunately both sides are populated by nut jobs who make everyone look bad. So everyone refuses to agree on something and everything becomes more tense. What everyone both old and young, rich and poor, domestic and foreign, needs to realize is that with the advent of newer and newer technology we ARE moving into a global society and there really isn't a way to change that. It is time for a redesigning of the way governments, economists, and society interact. The video game industry is already taking the lead in this situation cutting down gaps between international releases, especially the Pokemon Company who are planning a simultaneous world wide release of their next titles. More and more people are watching programs outside of their native language and due to the advent of twitter and facebook, world wide politics is being focused on more and more. 0
