Splomp
I like to add little stuff to stub articles, like relations or grammar fixes. I'm a bit of a pushover when it comes to politics.

Political Journey

Economics
I really like the Ordo-Liberal idea that monopolies and big corporations are the way markets stagnate. I'm pro markets, but anti-exploitation and anti-big corps. I believe the best way to achieve a truly free, fair market is though welfare, moderate regulation and and trust-busting. Unions have their place, but I'm not crazy about them.

Culture
I'm a Progressive. For me, this means I am all for social progress, like Woman's rights, racial minority rights and LGBT+ rights. I do act like a bit of an old man sometimes though (I genuinely believe that kids spend too much time on their phones these days).

Democracy
I like democracy, and believe it's the best way for citizens to have a roll in politics. I'm skewed towards Direct or Liquid, but Republics are serviceable. I'm also an E-Democrat.

Environment
Climate Change is an era defining issue in politics and without. I think that we have to act quickly and decisively to combat Co2. This is where to algae part comes in. Algae is crazy good at absorbing Co2, so I think that the government should subside and promote algae production, so that it become a major industry. Tax breaks should be given to algae producers, as to encourage people to begin growing algae. We should also encourage citizens to grow spirulina in pools in their backyards, as it is also a food source. Citizens can then sell their dried algae to the government in lieu of part of their tax, and then it is given back to the needy as part of the welfare program. This is probably my most extreme political view.
