Views on the Republican Party

While I dont usually associate myself with this party, there are definite positive factors along with the negative.

I find the fact that the party is united, fiscally responsible, and I agree with part of the Conservative theory. They move together, speak as one and have a singular position politically. This united front seems organized and strong compared to the disorganized, bad communication of the Democrats. While the Republicans have not been very responsible with money, they still have the reputation of being fiscally responsible. This, if it was true, would be hugely important and a wonderful trait of anyone. Something I strongly agree with, is the conservative views about institutions. The government is necessary for the development of people. Being self-centered is a natural part of human development and most people grow out of it. To grow out, education is necessary, and the government should provide that and any other necessary aids. In addition, people do not always make the best choices for themselves and their community: we can make disastrous choices that we do not see how it will effect the rest of society.

A negative is the lack of willingness to improve and evolve, they believe in "recapturing goodness", that we had the ideal once, and should work to get it back. I strongly feel that the only way to survive the situations that we have put ourselves in is to grow and change. Develop new technologies and change the way of thinking. I also strongly believe in things like the new health care bill, to which the Republicans are apposed. The way that Republicans favor large corporations also disturbs me. Corperations are not the future, and the administration under Republican presidents depend on them, and cater to them too much.
