All the major political and economic problems in the world, are created by giving an entity to much power. When corporations have to much power, they abuse it. When governments have to much power, they abuse it (almost every time they abuse it worse). The solution to less tyranny, is less centralized power. Socialism by it's nature creates centralized government. So if the world moved from what it is today, to what you would like it to be, you would just be moving the tyranny from one group to another, giving that group even more power.. thus more tyranny. If you want to be a "freedom fighter" and reduce tyranny, you need to decentralize power. Remove the ability of government to run your life, and remove it's ability to allow corporations to run your life. All a big government does, is gives the corporations a one stop shop to buy all the power they need. I want to remove that ability. Of all the money collected by government, the person in the US who should have the most influence over it, should be your town mayor, or your county commissioner. Then your state Governor, and lastly, congress and the president. If 10,000 mayors controlled all the money, where would a corporation go to try and buy political power? If a Mayor had to answer to 50,000 people to get elected, he would have to be a lot less corrupt then a president. This is how you fix tyranny. Not by taking an organization who has half the power now, and giving them all of it. When you do that, you create a dictator, not a country free of tyranny. |
Yea socialism isn't good for the stability of the world, even though it is really bad it does leave open the possibility for power to be abused.
What you are talking about doesn't stop the wars from necessarily happening. All someone has to do is come up with a reason fake or real, make it look like it was a terrorist and go on a killing spree. The problem right now is that the US is just too powerful, nobody wants to go against them.
The US military budget is almost as big as the rest of the entire world combined, and 9 times bigger than China's which is the 2nd biggest. Decentralization of power in the world both military and economic would be good.
