What is the future of democracy? Is it a realistic option?

The future of democracy is many different things and ideas. Democracy can be anything that us or the people of American decide and vote to what we want. I think it is very important to understand that the pass has a way of repeating itself and we all must understand this and make decisions and ideas to prevent these things from happening. I believe that democracy is the right system and it's important to keep it that way.

What is the process to develop an economic policy that provides services and sustainability?

The process to develop an economic policy that provides services and sustainability is one that is very difficult to do. There are way to many sectors and sections of the economy that needs to be looked into to see exactly what kind of money that they need to put into it. Both sides of the party either want to save or conserve money and the other side wants to spend money for social programs of new energy plans. This is a big problem in out system because value of living is always increasing so does out tax payout. The more money that we put into these programs the less sustainable we are because we are spending money when we really shouldn't be. Also, the Obama healthcare bill is one that is not necessary but is going to take alot of tax dollars to fund and support.

How does a government facilitate comprehensive care for its constituents without sacrificing equity?

How does a government facilitate comprehensive care for its constituents without sacrificing equity?

First, what is equity? equity is the residual claim or interest of the most junior class of investors in assets, after all liabilities are paid. If valuations placed on assets do not exceed liabilities, negative equity exists. In an accounting context, Shareholders' equity (or stockholders' equity, shareholders' funds, shareholders' capital or similar terms) represents the remaining interest in assets of a company, spread among individual shareholders of common or preferred stock.  

The government facilitate comprehensive care for its constituents through many different programs such as unemployment, medicare, and social security.  This is possible because everyone that works pays or supports all these programs for everybody that pulls from it.  This is a good idea but I do not know if it is practical because these systems are currently draining our government and is a creating a huge problem for us.

Foreign Policy

I believe that a nation-state should develop its foreign policy in accordance to its values and even beyond that.  A nation-state should develop great reflection of their businesses and how they handle themselves.  The values of a country should always be open-minded and try to help countries that need help because our values should step in and want to do the same.  Connections to the developments of its domestic policy should be handled in a very powerful manner.  We should consider domestic policy with the same regards as the foreign policy.
