Do you approve of the United Kingdom?

[Imperializt Russia]

But the concept is no different.
He has achieved nothing except on the back of his parents. He has made no struggle and had no strive.

This is a something for nothing culture. It's just not the something for nothing culture he opposes.
This is classism.

Once again I say that it's about free will. I have no problem with inheritance because of that. Social security and other government "aid" I oppose because it's theft.

[Imperializt Russia]

Apart from the fact that it's not.

How is it not theft when it's taken from money earned with hard work?

I thought I told you to stop using that buzzword.

The state's job is to provide its citizens with access to the means of defence, healthcare and personal security. It does this through taxes. This is part of your duty to the state, and your fellow man within the state.

Hello Nationstates General. Today I have another question. Do you approve of the United Kingdom? The United Kingdom follows the United States on its tours around the world, always by its side. It is also a critical component in NATO. However, it has recently taken unpopular actions, like ignored radical Islam for fear of being labeled as a racist country. Or if the UKIP party wins, and it looks like it is, it will leave the European Union. But still, on the other hand, it is sending troops to Estonia to help prepare Estonian troops. It was the country that has given birth to the most influential powers around the world. I.E Australia, Canada, United States, New Zealand. So my question is, do you approval or disapprove?

I was unaware that a sovereign nation required my approval. Actually, I quite doubt it does. Nevertheless, they have it.

[Patria Magna]

I can't approve of them when their entire political structure is based off of attacking Catholics.

And for those citizens who work hard and still suffer? What, do we let them starve and lament in poverty?

[Allet Klar Chefs]

I rate it a solid 6/10.

Like, honestly.

We made peace with Catholicism, like, two hundred years ago.

I don't consider that my duty. I am in no way bond to support other people. No state should be able to force people to help other people live. This is partly authoritarianism. The state should be minimal.

That is not authoritarianism.

On the latter point, I fundamentally disagree. A minimalist state has no point in existing.

Of course, if the social structure were equitable, this conversation would not be required, as one would not be "forced" to help other people live anyway.

[The Nuclear Fist]

The lower classes don't deserve equal quantity because they don't have the responsibility and the ambition that for example the businessmen need to succeed. They could go for business if they wanted to. It's about choice.
The difference with something for nothing system and inheritance is the fact that when the government "helps" the lower class they take from others while in inheritance money is given out of your free will.

Oh yes, clearly no one becomes a laborer because of anything other than passiveness and laziness.

*jerkoff pantomime*

How fucking deluded does an adult have to be to honestly believe that?

It's like your only insight into the modern United Kingdom is a school textbook on Tudor England.

If a nation doesn't have a moderator's approval, it may be DEATed. Thankfully the United Kingdom's flag, motto, currency and national animal are all neither obscene nor offensive.

[Norfolk and Suffolk]

I think most of the Anti-UK arguments come from this lady.

That old bag doesn't deserve the airtime she is given.

Oh yeah, also. Britain's cities suck. Only half decent one is Lincoln.

Clearly you haven't been to Norwich

[The Atheist State of Greater London]

I approve of the United Kingdom. They are strongly opposed against Muslim Extremists: for example, David Cameron was prepared to defend Charlie Hebdo's right to publish their cartoon, and even went on the march along with a number of other political leaders. I don't recall Obama being one of them. However, I still dislike David Cameron.

Wait, you mean I can moderate real life now?

Real life? What is this you speak of? Is it free or do you have to pay to play it?

[Jute]

The politicians aren't the best of course, the ban on pornography is mostly pointless and opens the door to censorship for example and their secret service is overzealous, in some ways more so than the NSA even, but other than that seems like a nice country. I'd like to visit it sometime.

Well, seeing as I'm from the UK and I haven't left yet, I think approval is on the cards

Still banned for another 10 days.

It's free, but very difficult to continue with no payments at all.

That would be awesome. If I could, I'd start by removing UKIP.

[The Nihilistic view]

She is ~60 years old, and to be fair, she doesn't look that old at all.

True, she looks like a woman in her late 40's

That is an insult to women in their 40s.
