How do you want the country to be run?

Asked by JLeslie (65417points) February 11th, 2017 from iPhone

Americans are having some internal political wars. Lots of words are being thrown around. Democrat, Republican, Progressive, European left, alt-right, and the list goes on. I was on this Q where jellies were arguing which way the US is going. People debating which way the American people really want their political leaders to go, and it occurred to me that I wanted jellies to really describe what exactly they meant.

For instance, do they think the country would be best with free enterprise, but government run medical care, a universal basic income for all, free housing for everyone, free college, putting kids on education “tracks” at a young age, a simpler tax system, etc. What’s your vision?

At the end of your description please tell us what you call it. Conservative? Neoliberalism? Progressive? Socialist? Capitalist? Left? Right? Moderate? Whatever word or words you see fit.

This Q is not only for Americans. All are welcome to talk about the political system and details they want for their own country. Let us know where you live.
