(i’ll stop with the computer analogy now ^^)

>>if you live in a real democracy, I don't, nor do I want to. I live in a Constitutional Representative Republic. where the majority is not allowed by the constitution to invoke their mob rule on others The Founders of my nation did not trust democracy any more than they trusted monarch's and I agree with them I desire individualism, and individual rights not democracy and mob rule >>the earth isn’t some computer program where you have infinite ram and can just alloc as much as you want, at some point you start pushing other process out of memory, and you wonder why stuff starts crashing and freezing... I 100% agree with this, I disagree that a Authoritarian Centrally managed government is the best or ideal way to allocate though resources I am not going to get into a computer analogy, but I tend to following Geo-Libertarian philosophy as a structure for human organization
