Just a letter I sent to a friend of mine who is in politics... about my dismay with our current political system... completely un-doable and probably more off the wall than I would like to believe... but i sent it none the less...
===========================
Hey Stacks...
It's been a long time, but I had something on my mind i figured should happen, so I figured, I would go to the one person i really know that does anything truely with politics.
I have to say, I am depressed with the political state this country is in. The republicans, governed by the religious right, the corporate machine, and the overall corrupt people of the world... and the democrats, who to me... have a better philosophy of how things should be run, but have just proven to be an utter dissappointment.
For the last couple years, I have just not been impressed with any, and I mean ANY candidate running for our highest office, or for any office for that matter. I am not saying they are bad people. They are just caught up in so many of the politics, scandals, (INSERT OTHER FAILINGS HERE) that i just don't trust any of them. We need a change... Something that makes sense that ultimately is better for the country, and not just for themselves.
I propose a new political party... the Logic Party!
People who are governed by logic and reason, who makes decisions based on facts, true facts that people research, using true methods. People who are not quite swayed by the lobbyists of the world, and truely do what's correct, fair and just.
I figured, they wouldn't pander to any specific group, as they would be fair to all. Use scientific methods, rather than political pressure. People who would be able to back up their decisions with research, INDEPENDANT research using scientific methods and such to make the appropriate decisions. People who are interested in making things fair for everyone, no matter how unpopular their decisions are with certain "special interests"
Show me a person who can back their decisions up with Facts, who is interested in upholding the rights, freedoms and overall fairness of EVERYONE in the country. Who use logic and reason and not passions to dictate their decisions.
Don't get me wrong... Passions and feelings are good... I just don't want it governing me. I personally think that a logical political party might be the thing needed as a refreshing change...
Sounds like nervana, some people might think it's like a new world order type concept... ultimately, with the state the world is in now a days, i don't think it would truely get off the ground... but i think we really need people in political power that deal in facts... not fiction!
just my $.02...
Other than that, how is everything going with you?
