Why I'm A Liberal

I believe in the goodness of man, and that the government can set him on the right path in times of need. Locke’s philosophy mirrors most o

As for the equality of man, I completely believe it. I believe that all men are created as equals and that in society they have an equal chance. Sure, the strength, intelligence or resourcefulness of people may vary, but they all balance out. If this country were thrown into a state of anarchy tomorrow, who would survive? The simple answer is, probably the fittest and most adapted. The strong would rely on their strength as a defense, the intellects on their cunning. The people that lack both of these qualities make up for it some other way that is just as useful. People are equal and in my mind they should have equal representation and should be treated as equals in every aspect of society.

My next issue is the promotion of needle-exchange programs for IV drug users. This is a very serious issue and should be treated as such. The government has a dilemma. It can either decide to endorse a needle-exchange program which would might give the appearance that the government encourages or supports drug use, or it could neglect to have these programs, which would then put drug users at serious risk of contracting deadly diseases such as AIDS. Life is worth more than any political stance. If you can save the lives of a few people from the spread of disease then it should be done in a heartbeat. The more life you have left to live, the more opportunities that you have for coming clean. What annoys me is that the American government is dealing with a serious AIDS problem nation-wide, which claims the lives of tens of thousands yearly, and but can’t take the simplest steps to solve it. At the rate the medical society is going we won’t have a cure any time soon. The least th!

As a society evolves with new technologies, social issues, and political leaders, it’s almost inevitable that some changes must occur. Without change we’d still be stuck in tribes with primitive leadership. Political change allows a society to grow and to benefit the majority of the people. The founders of the United States of America clearly understood the concept of change as a society changes, which is why it created amendments. This allowed for the people to change laws to suit the betterment of society. The basic political structure has remained constant, yet the people have been able to decide in which direction they want their country to be headed. It has made the country great to be able to voice the ideas of so many opinions. This has prevented tremendous revolutions. I’m against revolutions within a democratic regime. If the people are living under a tyrannical regime that is cruel to the majority and it is hindering the well being of the people, then there is nothing wrong with a revolution. What I’m seriously opposed to is the idea of revolution where people have radical ideas which will pretend like the past three hundred years of civilization never occurred. People should learn from their ancestors that there’s a reason for their system and way of life. For an extreme radical to carry out a revolution that installs a completely different way of life is just going against society’s progression and throwing out years and years of fine-tuning to adjust a symbiotic society. As you can see from the example of the Communist Revolution that occur
