I'm dabbling with federalism and seeing it would work with the UKMso I'll get back to you on that one

@sandwitch Wrong

Local problems are ignored more in local government than in federal government

Have a local problem? File a complaint with the government and it'll be taken care of.

Then make local problems a local government priority central government should be for the nation

@sandwitch How do you ensure local identity dosent exist

?

@sandwitch Giving autonomy to regional governments may lead to rebellion, regional identity, etc

Ah I see

I'll use the UK as an example because a lot of people sort of want independence from us like Cornwall for some reason

So maybe teach children about unity, make sure representatives have all their voices heard

True, let China keep control of hong king, Tibet, uighars, etc

Very woke

Yeah you really can't stop people from feeling linked to where they are born

Nothing wrong with regional identity. Humans are meant to live in small communities, and having bigger systems with more control isolates everyone

^

Take London for example

No federal government

London's a great place but if you look up to the North of England you see the disparity

Federal government should be there to help negotiate with inter regional issues and international issues

^

It should be a voluntary choice to be a part of a federal beuracracy

If states see a value in it, they will join

If it serves them little purpose and just centralizes power for itself, states can leave

Otherwise you get people like the Chinese President who said he will destroy the bodies of people who try to have states want to leave China, and turn their bones to dust

Shut up libertarian

Thats not a valid argument

Name calling

Extreme Unitarianism is the only way

Political power grows from the barrel of a gun - Mao Zedong

Its just common sense, government is just a tool to make our life better, thats it

Wrong

That is not it's only goal

It is

No

Wym

Explain, stop just making claims then just not explanaing lol

As we can see from the west, better "lives" have led to degenerate behaviors and extreme materialistism

Fucking mobile excuse my typing

The state should be designed to encourage virtue

Degenerate behaviours and materialism is the fault of the society's philosophers, teachers, and parents, not cause of a result of people having better lives
