This is just curiosity and so people can talk about how they feel about the government of their country or what government they believe is right.
Personally, I believe in a small government where the government hardly does anything to affect your life, but people just don't care nowadays what happens: They just want free stuff, like money, food to make them fatter, other free junk from what the government 'romises' also known as 'lies' and the government has just controlled people.
So, I believe in a small, democratic government that won't control your daily life. That would include Capitalism as well.

I like the idea of a government that doesn't **** over everyone underneath of it whenever it has the chance and I also like the governmental system that allows for idiots to be kicked out of office whenever they make decisions that a majority of people don't like.

That would be no government that I can think of, so basically all forms of government suck.

I think we should have a goverment that is democracy and communism mixed. The closest type of this goverment would be modern day China, they say that their goverment is communist but it is more in the between of communist and democracy. And lets face it China has a much better economy than us, Their citizens are die hard patriots, and most of our goods come from them.

I'm probably going to get slammed for this, but I would prefer a government led by Christian religious leaders.

Do you mean, a political government led by people who are member of your church? Or would you go further and say you'd want an ecclesiocracy/theocracy?

Sorry but this ain't my thing at all. In my eyes a government should be completely secular. But that's just my opinion.
On my part I'm pretty much agreeing with grimml's opinion, and stick with an improved version of our country's system.

A government where there's freedom and open trade, equality between everyone(rich, poor, man, woman etc.) and where all kind of ideologies and religions etc. live in peace all together.

To keep the peace it would be better if there were one president-like man for every ideologie and religion. And at last a king like man who's rulling the country with these president-like man.

And it's not like, the king is at the top of the mountain. Everyone is equal. The king, the president-like guys and the people. And it's not like the son of the king becomes the next king or something. The people will choose for the king.

Something like a constitutional monarchy, but much better. It's like a dream that never will come true

Its easy to agree with people that share your beliefs. Christians have more in common with each other than people of other religions and Christians.

Do you think that a secular Christ has more in common with a member of the Westboro Baptist Church or with a secular Muslim?

In my opinion Some Christians have distorted ideas, like those people at Westboro.

@ HahiHa I wouldn't go for a theocracy unless it was pure, and I wouldn't go for people from my church either. I would go for somewhere in the middle, like for example for the Baptist party in the government that I believe is right would be someone like the president of the Baptist World Alliance.

Even though Westboro's ideas are a little distorted I would say they have more in common with Christ.

How on earth did religion get into a politics thread?

C'mon AG, don't be that forums.

That's kinda how it works today in the US. The Legislative branch is kept in check by the Executive Branch, the Executive by the Judicial, and the Judicial by the Legislative. It's a huge game of Rock, Paper, Scissors.


What I mean is the power and responsibilities of president would be divided between three people.

given the massive scale of certain countries, it's hard to efficiently run said nations with only three individuals.

I've always wondered how successful real communism would work if it were possible. Having the people rule over everything with no government to mess with things. Of course, that will never happen, with the way human greed goes.
