[Igor Hardy]

I say, let's blow up the bridge under Babar and see him fall in the political abyss!

Here's what I got for the Uber-AGS ZX Spectrum.

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 10%
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 70%

[bicilotti]

So we're having libertarians, leftists, a handful of centrists and a convervative.



We're missing a dictator!

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 50%

[Matti]

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 100%
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 40%

But just like in the other quiz most questions were based on premises whom I'd prefer to engage instead of 'subcategories' determined by already given assumptions. If the questions are wrong, there's no right answer.

10%? really?

If you dont mind me asking:

What was your maybe?

And if you're pro government censorship exactly what form of censorship are you thinking of?
Censoring anti-government sentiments?
or censoring morally-objectionable material like porn and/or 'obscene materials' (books etc.)

And if you are pro-'bedroom laws' how do you justify that?
To promote the traditional family?
To protect a certain stratum of society?
Or something else i havent thought of?

[Dualnames]

Hat parties every Friday.

Can we invite Dualnames to the party? He looks so lonely in his part of town. Like a hobo or some crazy guy living out of a shopping cart.

10%? really?

Well apart from the fact it's not a very in depth set of questions, it's simply the way I interpret them.

"Government should not censor speech, press, media, or internet." I disagree. Obviously there are some lines which the media shouldn't cross. Say for example a TV station started broadcasting radical material. Nobody would be able to stop them.

"Military service should be voluntary. There should be no draft." This one was a maybe because press-ganging is simply wrong; but on the other hand, saying no draft full-stop means that in times of global war, we couldn't summon the men which we would need.

"There should be no laws regarding sex for consenting adults." I disagreed with this. The key word I picked out is no laws. I believe there should be at least some restrictions, against incestuous relationships for example.

[Igor Hardy]

So in your opinion people don't have sufficient abilities to properly regulate any aspect of their lives by themselves? By nature they are insensitive cowards with no control over their sexual urges?

That's some extremely pessimistic view.

[Khris]

I read the censorship statement a different way; I took it to say "Government shouldn't censor" as opposed to "they can censor at their whim". Sedition is unlawful in Germany, so there's no need to censor radical material.

Also, no draft doesn't mean there aren't "enough" soldiers (how many is enough anyway?)
The US doesn't draft and they don't seem to be running out of soldiers.

Regarding no laws concerned with sex of consenting adults except against incest, what about people who fall in love and two years into their blossoming relationship find out they are brother and sister? And what else would you outlaw?

[LRH]

Sorry I never posted my %'s.
100% and 90%.

Um... seriously Ascovel? When did I say or even imply any of this?

Edit:

what about people who fall in love and two years into their blossoming relationship find out they are brother and sister?

Khris, sex and love are completely different things. Of course I wouldn't make it illegal for siblings to love each other, but I believe when it escalates into inbreeding it's just wrong on many fronts. It's been proven scientifically countless times. On the extremely rare occasion they don't know their connection, there's not much you can do.

Well, at least that's my way of reasoning about the introduction of any laws or rules - you introduce outside control and limit freedom only in the areas where huge amounts of people have a tendency to make dangerous/destructive choices. So, if you say "saying no draft full-stop means that in times of global war, we couldn't summon the men which we would need", it seems to me that, in your opinion, in the face of global war most people are cowards and rather than voluntarily fight would prefer to procrastinate while the war consumes everything. Otherwise, why would you want to pass such a law?

[Atelier]

in your opinion, in the face of global war most people are cowards

No. My assumption is that the vast majority aren't cowards, so everybody is automatically signed up. As for the pacifists, un-fit, or whatever, their appeals will be judged fairly and accordingly.

[Igor Hardy]

If they are not cowards than why do you have them to sign up automatically, rather than let them sign up voluntarily?
