It's not a matter of more government or less government, it's a matter of good government.
More government doesn't make for better government, it just makes more bureaucracy and worse government.
Less government doesn't make for better government, it just makes for holes in a structure that get fixed with new structures, which generates overlapping and conflicting bureaucracies, and worse government.
Better government is the goal. That means transparency, accountability, and an independent Ombudsman where anyone can go when the government administration is being bureaucratic, unfair or illegal.
Peace, international law, the United Nations (UN), the International Criminal Court (ICC), not war; Nobel literature, not Hollywood; mythology and psychology, Darwin and Joseph Campbell, not religion; transhumanism, cryonics, the GRIN revolution (genetics, robotics, information technology, nanotechnology) and the Singularity - bonobos, not chimps - and any glittering factoid in the random path of life.

About Me
- robinhl
- Chapel Hill, North Carolina, United States
- British by birth, Jamaican by registration, Canadian by naturalisation, Australian by descent. Formerly Danish, too, but I lost citizenship in becoming Canadian. But no permanent status in the country I was raised in (the Bahamas), or in the country I've been living in since 1991 (the US). My flag is the blue-and-white of the UN, all other flags are historically interesting at best, despicable at worst.
