your "ideal" country

if you could take the buracracy, lifestyle,beliefs system,educcation of a different ( NON-FICTIONAL) regions to make your own country

what would you choose

from my travel experience I would say

I'll take the organization of Northern Europe. Hail white people

The Life style of latin america. que mas latinos

I;d take a secular, humanistic, belief system

education hmm I say the reseach monies of american post grad, with asian importance on school but focused on learning and thinking as opposed to grades obession

Wow AE, you love to make thought provoking threads, don't you?

I haven't done much studying about the governments of other countries, and I only know about lifestyles as much as I've read in our Geography book at school since I haven't traveled much, so all I can say is that I'd want a democracy for sure.

Haven't really travelled too much yet, so a lot of this is drawn from observation, rather than interaction.

Bureaucracy? I guess I would go for one with a European bent.

Belief system: Humanist/atheist + a little good old kiwi apathy. Hey! We were the first country to let women vote!

Education: Post-grad, probably the US.

Then I'll take all these and abscond to some little greek island paradise where I don't have to wear clothes.

eek. You'd think, considering how much I've thought about an ideal system, I'd have a lot to say here. Well, I kinda do. . .I'll think more on it, but, *prepares to run very far, and hide* there are certain aspects of the Cuban government/system that I like. Well, I'll come back with a more complete mix, and I certainly wouldn't want the entirety of the Cuban system, but definitely some aspects. And no, I am not a communist or a socialist. Nor am I an idealist, which is basically saying the same thing.
