What is the future of democracy? Is it a realistic option?

Well i cant really answer this because there is so many variables that go in to this.... But if you look from now and into the past there was ups and down so going off of that i would say im sure there will be ups and downs or it could go up and up. Basically out of all of that i would say we cant tell what will happen in the future with out building a time machine and jump forward in time....not likely though. but to be on the bright side ill say yes it could get better if every thing fell into place perfectly..

What is the process to develop an economic policy that provides services and sustainability?

The process to develop an economic policy in my eyes are that we are basically losing the sustainability since we are going out of the United States to get everything built or repaired. Because back in the day the United States used to be in an industrial stage where we made everything ourselves, we basically became lazy and I am happy with that other then I know my kids will have to grow up and deal with all our problems we have brought upon the Nation. But back to answering the question I would have to say to develop an economic policy that provides services and sustainability we need to start bringing jobs back to the United States and become part of the Industrial Age once again. And to be able to feel more accomplished when building your own materials or building a toy etc. Don’t get me wrong I don’t mind China, Mexico or even Brazil making our goods that we use so often. But I would say to become a more stable Nation I would say that this would need to happen.

How does a government facilitate comprehensive care for its constituents without sacrificing equity?

I think to answer this question fairly in my eyes to make so the government doesn’t look completely like a failure. Is first of all the government is stuck between a rock and a hard place because they do give out comprehensive care but I see a lot of people either use it wisely or abuse it. For example Food stamps is one way I see it being abused, people who don’t even need it anymore still go buy other things other than food with the stamps when there is people almost being thrown out on the street because they cannot afford the cost of living. But then I see like the House buyers credit, that the government is being way helpful and giving everyone an equal chance to use it. And Tax returns are another way they give equity, even if you have to pay or not pay. It gives you that chance.

How should a nation-state develop its foreign policy in accordance to its values and in connection to the development of its domestic policy?

Nation-state should develop its foreign policy in accordance to its values, ethics, beliefs, and morals of the domestic policy. Foreign policy should not be different when it comes to respect for human rights, freedom of speech, discrimination, international laws, and so on. I believe we should apply similar respect for various rights and freedoms that we have in the domestic policy to foreign policy. United States constitution has a great impact on the domestic policy and laws governing our country. Foreign policy should resemble the domestic policy and various freedoms, rights, laws we Americans have. For example, CIA operating in foreign countries often violates foreign nation laws, human rights, and freedoms, which also go against American domestic policy.
