My passion is politics (#3326)

     I have a heart for romance but since that window is closing what I find left is my passion for how we are governed. Our democracy is a marvelous achievement and given all the other political institutions throughout the world I wouldn't hesitate one bit in choosing our system here in America. Now don't get me wrong there are plenty of areas in our system that need to be advanced so that corruption like the scale of trumps can never happen again, but in the foundation of democracy I find my greatest enrapture. The idea of improving on our system to require all to be equal is unequivocal. There are nasty brutish republicans who find this concept not to their liking but then again these nasty brutish republicans are not to our enlightened liking either.
     Equality has within it's bounds the ideal that no discrimination or prejudice can be any factor in deciding who and what is proper. We have those who violate our laws and they should be punished through a system that metes out punishment proportionately regardless of who the offender is. Our democracy should as well dish out benefits in an equally proportional fashion. None of us it too worthy nor not worthy enough where the measuring of thought and behavior are considered the same. The time for advantage and privilege based upon factors outside equality should have no place in our egalitarian society. We humans are a precious gift to our planet and the universe beyond but only if we all are accepted as precious ourselves.
     There can be no more class system that holds one group over another based upon race, creed, gender, age etc... or any other non behavioral ability. What we have within us is the difference between who is great and who is just good. We all have the ability to express our own will and determination on any subject and that is the merit we are measured by, not some expectation or deserve. This is why I can never stop advocating for our democracy. It is the template for us to add to as our society and our human nature evolves. We are not the first grubby humans who first came into being those many many millenniums ago. We are now comprehensively smarter, faster and more equipped physically than at any time in our recorded past. The politics of our future is being played out now and for me it is the most important and heart felt time in my life!
