I said loyalty and kindness.

If you want these things from people in government you have to put people in government who have these qualities.

What we need to do is stop acting like we don't have any power to put people in office or take people out.

government doesn't teach people how to be good. Therefore, character has to be built in and by communities. Parents, teachers, elders in the community all have influence over future leaders because all leaders were once only children.

And if you don't like how government is operating... change it by putting in good people who will make it better.

It's very easy to find something to complain about and some reason to say that the government is broken. But we're no longer under British colonial rule.

Greetings to all mystics on here

I agree Demoncracy as practiced today is an illusion. The main problem is that we have been fooled into electing individuals/parties/demons and not to elect solutions to the actual problems we face in the country. We all know what is wrong in the country and what should be improved, so InI think it would be much better to vote for solutions rather than personalities, politicians and their parties are always busy fighting each other and not solving the problems. In Africa it is much much worse where a single country can have allot of political parties, divided and conquered, babylon keeps sponsoring the parties, funding the candidates they want, or even just rigging the whole thing, because in capitalism money is the ruler (there is no way around this fact).

The only way democracy can work on the scale of a country is if the elected candidates can guarantee that they will keep the promises they made during their campaigns and offer some collateral, for example in countries that offer the death penalty politicians should be executed if they fail to keep their promises. This is the only way InI will ever vote, otherwise it is just babylon trickery.

InI also think that democracy can only truly work on a small scale like a commune, also in the grand scheme of things anarchists are the only ones that practice democracy, no hierarchies, the playing field is evened out.

Stay blessed, stay blissed!
Rastafari Liveth!
