Proletarian

Recently, I was asked 'what political party do you belong to?'.I turned to them, in reserve, and answered, 'I belong to no party, but the socialist party is closest to what I believe in.'. My answer drew a curious, and judgmental raised eyebrow. I was surprised to not receive a sermon about how my beliefs were wrong, and his party was the right one, but he simply waved it off and went about his day.

I have created, to what I believe, my own party. I dubbed it 'Democratic Socialism', which may be redundant, or a counter productive title. My Beliefs are as such.
  • Education oppurtunities should be equal, a poor man has just as much a right to excellent education as does a rich man.
  • The government should be able to play a part in economies crucial to the success of the country's infrastructure. Limited by a system of check and balances.
  • The people should be able appoint a person to represent and to lead them, but not giving one man all power
There are a lot more, but these are just a few to elaborate my ideals.

  1. Aren't some modern-day kings the same way, they lead their people but don't really have any power other than that.

    Anyway I agree with you on everything here. I also think the government in America needs to wise up. I call restart, refresh, renewal. Something along those lines.
