It's fairly obvious that we're on different ends of the political scale (I'm basing this from your comment: "The government is not meant to intefere in the market by redistributing income." - whereas, I personally feel that Labour are too right wing). |
Ah. I didn't realise that. I'm a libertarian (small government, maximally free economy, maximum social liberties). However, I respect anyone's views as long as they make sense and are their own opinions.
I do think we need a change of government to one that can make decisions consistently, be that left or right. (Labour aren't acting left- or right- wing, they're flip-flopping based on whathever they think will get votes on a given day).
For 1), it's a case of what the country 'ought' to be. If you have your own ideas about that, then that's fine. I'm just anti-ignorance. I agree anarchy is not an option.
For 2), well, it's a case of "will it do more good than harm?". Without studies and evidence, it's impossible to say accurately. Again, it's an opinion thing.
