there are some laws about they need to give me a guide on how to complain, when they make a final decision.
but i have never been in a situation, where that was necessary. after that there are still the courts...

OK, so, let me get this straight. If a government employee gives you poor service, you complain... to the government. And if that doesn't get you satisfaction, you can take them to court? To the government court?

Ever heard the phrase "conflict of interest," chummer?

trias politica, go look it up.

Don't work too well, when the same guy signs all the checks.

Except for the guy himself.

are you implying that i sign all the checks?

No, but that happend in history at times. Mr Stalin might be a candidate here.

Government does everything badly. It's a monopoly. Monopolies always give the worst service for the highest price.

wrong. The government is for the people by the people, and people have absolutely no interest in providing bad service.

You've never actually interacted with the government - any government - have you?

yes i have, and it was simple and easy.

Just that once?

a few times.

And what happens if you don't get good service? Who do you complain to, and what happens?

In America, it's by the wealthy, for the wealthy. They just keep the sheep and cattle happy by making them think they're apart of their game.

Surprise: America is not the whole world.

Surprise: Your world is not encompassed by America. Guess what happens when you're born American? Is it:

A. You get a free stab at the country you want to live in

Or

B. You're fucked.

Please tell us, kokjo, about this universal government you're referring to that you appear to exist in.

A much more comprehensive test that has been around for ages

1. This isn't really any different than the rest of the diamond charts.
2. For some reason, the question-maker is under the impression that corporatism is a part of libertarianism.

The whole "for the people by the people" is just propaganda. I'm surprised you haven't figured that out yet.

But anyway, you are claiming that the government always gives us good service? Supposedly because "we the people" don't want bad service? I only need to point out one bad example to completely refute your argument. Do you think I can't?

of course sometimes shit happens.

how about:
"The average quality of services from the government is good."

On the other hand: Even Dick Fuld, CEO of Lehmans bank provided an abysmal service to his customers, harming his own net value.
That whole "bad service" notion has got to be a fallacy.

Liberal that is: ID cards was one point I disagreed with...

On the other one I ended up as Solid Liberal...

Wait, so you:
Approve of Corporate bailouts
Approve of Trade tariffs
Approve of Social security (that one's kind of a given)
Disapprove of Private charity
and want bigger government spending?

Yes, in some cases. All of those are beneficial in moderation.

It's really about balance. All of the options are rather extreme in my mind.

Government is doing things badly, but I don't think they shouldn't be done.

Government does everything badly. It's a monopoly. Monopolies always give the worst service for the highest price.

On topics:
New companies should receive some support if they are viable. Also some support or tax credit for research and development isn't bad. Depends on general tax rate though.

If they are viable, they don't need support. And support for R&D can be done privately.

There is some need to protect inner market, for certain products. We aren't yet in global world peace...

Protectionism doesn't work. For every job saved in one industry, you're costing your own economy 2-3 in others. Think about it.

Given...
Not that I'm against private charity, but it should come after social security.

Kinda the point isn't it? "I already gave at the office." Take away social security, and people will have more to give.
