"Yes I would keep a semblance of the current system. The reason is because it is the best way to control people. If you think about it giving people the illusion that they control their lives makes them much less likely to revolt. Dictators are just idiots who haven't realized that they are taking unnecessary risks."

"Haha no I was just clarifying the basis of my post. I think this is a very interesting thread. I think I should apologize because my response was indirectly judging Uzzgub's response. I did not see his response when I posted."

"How do you prevent your leadership, or your system of leadership from becoming what you despise right now about the one you live under?"

"There's a slight difference between them as I understand it, but not much of one"

"I don't like the word leadership because I don't believe leaders are that important. The world has to many leaders. I think the evolution of leadership is to be a catalyst, someone who influences change but is not the leader of it. I like to think of myself as a catalyst always in control but never in charge. As for the our current system I think it could use changes. For one I think the president has way to much power and always has had too much power. I also think that we need more regulatory positions in our government. I am not talking about law regulation or economic regulation I am saying we need political regulation. More checks and balances. We also need to get rid of the electoral college or at least reduce the amount of power it has to equal or less than equal to the popular vote. I also think to be able to vote on certain legislation people should have to take a test to prove that they have sufficient knowledge of the policies and world that they are going to influence. I am tired of ignorance controlling the world.
