Why we need more young people in government

in politics •  7 years ago 

The benefits of a diverse government broadens the perspectives of the government. I do not want rich men representing me and passing laws that will effect me. They have no idea what life is like for people that are poor or live pay check to pay check. I do not want a representative that is a man to pass a law about my female body. Therefore, I want more female representatives in my government. I understand what you are saying about the workforce. I'm with you there. I would rather us all be able to do what we want rather than work for someone else, but unfortunately, in my country the collective mentality is still not there. They still think we need to 'earn a living', an archaic notion if you ask me.

Personally, I want a new society that works for all, where we can all focus on our passions. I love the idea of a universal basic income. But, we as a society aren't there. Our government isn't even talking about it.

That's why I suggested the young people in the government, so many have fresh new ideas. These new startup companies, most are founded by people fifty and below and the way they are changing the corporate culture to be more inclusive is very impressive. They have a lot to contribute, and I would like to see more of that in my government. Anyway, thanks for commenting!

I just don't think that there is a "guaranteed unique knowledge" in "diversity" as I do not believe that people are carrying something "absolute". I have been trying to put out my own made system, but I have not realy been able to properly express my self. I do kind of get what you are trying to say but I just kind of tried to make you question these "obvious things" as I find answer being in there. I am also kind of annoyed that there isn't too many people to argue with, as there is so many americans which equals to anarchists.

I appreciate that we can talk on the matter at least. Tell me more about your ideal system. I am always open to new ideas.

I'm going to provide a link to my best blog-post so far. It should give you some idea, alltough it is not best quality.

Thank you. I think we are on the same page as far as government goes. I see my own government's corruption, the two parties are a joke. We have career politicians that created a good old boy society that works for the corporations rather than the people. It's a mess. I would love to see the whole thing rebuilt.
