Me? I'm a socialist of sorts. I have anarchist and democratic socialist tendencies.
I am socialist, I believe in a socialist run economy. With all the freedom we can have without harming others. I don't believe in economic freedom, though.

I'm a social capitalist in philosophy. I believe in a capatilist society where those who work harder can get more for themselves and their children. I also believe in a socialist minimum where every citizen has food clothing and shelter. But nobody get's something for free. Welfare would become workfare and everyone is capable of perfroming a task. we have no useless humans.
Politically I am a Democrat. I used to be an independet, but I was pleased with the way the democratic party reached out to me specifically in the last election. i see the benefits of uniting behind a like minded party to achieve certain goals.

Sounds to me like social democrat.
Which I like. I mean, those higher up benefit, those lower benefit. My problem is still with a class based society, which would still exist. I believe a class based society is by definition immoral.

I'm a military man. I prefer not to get involved in politics. When each election comes around, I'll vote for who I think is going to lead the best, regardless of whether they're democrat or republican.

chessiejo one self test i took said i am an anarcho syndicalist. some say there can be no liberal libertarians. well that's pretty much what i am anyway. It all depends on how you look at the political spectrum, actually. I personally like the tests that show things like they are, with the social/economic standpoints, where I'm pretty much labelled "Anarchist Socialist." True, except for the Anarchy part. But I'm very libertarian in alot of my social views.

I'm for partially direct democracy and limited socialism. I'm not very happy with the US's current oligarchic plutocracy that moonlights as a representative capitalist democracy. Capitalist democracy is like saying communist aristocracy. They are both contradictory, yet by some miracle have managed to exist at one time or another in history.

The problem I find with socialism is that, as far as I can tell, there is little incentive to work hard. I mean, if you're smarter and a harder worker than most people, your quality of life will still be completely the same as someone who hardly works. And the only way to enforce people to work harder is to threaten them with punishment. And if that's not immoral, I don't know what is. Socialism is a perfect system, but the problem is that humans are imperfect, subject to jealousy and greed, so it will never work properly in a human society.

Im not very good with politics or political terms, so Ill just describe what I believe in.
I believe in democracy and believe that it should be used all across the world, I dont howevver believe that is should be spread by use of the military. The Military, in point of view, should be used defensive first, offensive second. I also believe that the entire world should be united as one so we can combine our efforts to protecting the enviroment and all species on the planet and exploration of our oceans and solar system

I don't believe in government, so I could say I really don't have a choice. No government works well with the human race, and nothing will change that.

angel of plot twists I don't believe in government, so I could say I really don't have a choice. No government works well with the human race, and nothing will change that. Please give one, single example in which a society of humans did/does not have a government and they were/are successful. I sure can't think of one.

I do firmly believe that humans need government, because I've seen what happens when you take government away from people. The majority are just fine, but there's a small, destructive minority that becomes a HUGE problem when no group has the power to control them.
I speak of New Orleans after Katrina.
As for the rest of my political beliefs... I think that the government is obligated to protect me from physical harm and harm to property from other people, from exploitation at the hands of all-powerful business, and from what they are physically capable of protecting me from out of the damage nature itself can cause. I think that going beyond those three basic obligations is infringement on my freedom of self-determination, and that of everyone else in the country.
That basic ideal forms the core of my political beliefs.
I am a registered Republican. When I first registered to vote, I flipped a coin between the two major parties, and that coin came up Republican. Now, I see the Republican Party in a state of flux, and I want my vote to count toward ousting the Neoconservatives from leadership of the party in 2008.

I believe in the old democracy ya know for the people by the people where our government wasn't as corrupt basically if you ask me if I like Bush I call the monkey reject and idiot whose mind has wandered off the map. I like looking into things and researching our history and the history of the world along with our current events and at the moment I think this civilization is going to be just like Rome with the way we are going. But thats just my opinion...
