Economy
The way I see it, planned economies are bound to fail. We've seen it in the past. Countries with centrally-planned economies either just stayed far behind till their collapse, or slowly moved towards economic liberalisation regardless. There are way too many mutual relations between prices and products in the economy for central planners to effectively keep track of.

The natural process of a market- and price-oriented economy has always shown to be the more efficient way of allocating goods.

[[File:Orlib.png]]Best type of market economy?[[File:Soccap.png]]
In an ideal system, I believe we should maximize civil and economic liberty through reform while staying within the boundaries of the German-style social market economy. I oppose bureaucracy and overregulation, as I think it gets in the way of progress and growth.

It is incredibly important that we have regulations to keep the competition fair, most notably in regards to worker's rights; workplace safety, a sufficient amount of annual leave/vacation for employees, and a suitable minimum wage (though one that is not too high). We must also make sure that suppliers of goods don't just put in their products whatever they want, they ought to make sure their orange juice makes no one die of dysentery.

[[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]]Free Trade[[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]]
Free trade is preferable to protectionism. The only exception I'd put would be for products from dubious places in general.

[[File:Socdem.png]]Healthcare[[File:Socdem.png]]
The healthcare sector must remain public at all costs. A system such as in the US would be truly nightmarish. I consider the right-libertarian argument for privatised healthcare referencing "long waiting times" to be utterly stupid.

[[File:Regulationism.png]]Taxation[[File:Regulationism.png]]
Taxation sure as hell ain't theft (cope, ancaps, ecks dee). It should be mildly progressive. I'm against the government wasting taxpayers' money for stupid projects no one asked for, but that's rather easy to say.

It is rather beneficial to keep taxes generally low for the populace and moderately high for big corps.

[[File:Welf.png]]Social Welfare[[File:Welf.png]]
Welfare is usually a better mean of helping out the disadvantaged than private charity is. That, however, doesn't mean I want the welfare state to be expanded. It's better if we slowly weaken (but not fully eradicate) the welfare state and promote self-reliance instead.

Society and Culture
I am culturally liberal for the most part, favouring equal rights and opportunities for people regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, sexuality or anything else. I support the legalisation of cannabis, though I'm a bit more skeptical of harder drugs.

[[File:Dem.png]]Democracy[[File:Dem.png]]
I absolutely stand by democracy, agreeing with it being the "least worst system". As opposed to an absolute monarchy or a fascist dictatorship, you won't be ruled by one idiot for eternity, but instead get to replace your currently ruling idiot with a slightly more suitable idiot every once in a while.

I favour representative democracy over direct democracy, but it wouldn't be so silly to adopt a Swiss-like model for approval of certain policies. *sigh*, I guess they have a point in this regard.

[[File:Nation.png]]Nationalism and Patriotism[[File:Modnat.png]]
I endorse patriotism, as it is not only natural, but also for the sake of national cohesion. But I reject the ideology of nationalism, it usually ranges from a populistic pest to straight up chauvinism.

Multiculturalism... I'm not quite sure. It conflicts with my idea of a cohesive nation with a shared civic and cultural identity. But on the other side, I support everyone's right to do as they please. That includes freedom of religion, for example.

[[File:Civlibert.png]]Freedom of Speech[[File:Civlibert.png]]
Freedom of speech must be guaranteed by the government, and hate speech largely falls under free speech, though I disdain it on a personal basis. The only restrictions I'd put on free speech would be:

1. Holocaust denial,

2. Organising, or actively calling for violence.

Although they deserve free speech like all other people, it deeply annoys me how some are so deeply hyprocritical about free speech, as in going off and ranting about how their "free speech" is being taken away, but then continuing to praise  regimes that valued said right the very least.

[[File:Fem.png]]Affirmative Action[[File:Fem.png]]
I'm no advocate for affirmative action. As I have mentioned, I want equal rights and opportunities for people regardless of gender or background, and I absolutely do not want anyone have their positions denied based on these factors, but top-down  enforcing "equality" through projects such as women's quotas hurts our meritocracy, and might as well just be reverse discrimination.

[[File:Gay.png]]LGBT rights[[File:Trans.png]]
Discrimination, never got behind it. Why waste all of your time and energy being angry at someone for merely existing? It's kind of repulsive this is such a political issue, do what you want, but don't pretend like denying a group of people basic rights is an opinion equivalent to liking a different flavour of ice cream, or wanting slighter lower taxes.

Homosexual individuals should be allowed to marry and reap the benefits that civil unions wouldn't grant them, they should also be able to adopt children in most circumstances, but ideally not when there is a heterosexual couple already ready to adopt as well (because I still believe that mothers and fathers play separate roles in raising children).

Foreign Policy
I am rather pacifistic and non-interventionist in my ideal foreign policy, but in regards to diplomacy and geopolitics, I view the  West  as the lesser of the two evils when compared with its     opposition.

In my honest opinion, a completely pacifist, 100% non-interventionist and anti-militarist foreign policy à la Die Linke would have devastating results. If the West just decides to immediately leave all the places they're currently present in, who's gonna fill that power vacuum? And how are we going to defend ourselves from outside threats?

[[File:World.png]]Alliances[[File:World.png]]
I strongly support the European Union, Schengen agreement, Eurozone and, to a slightly lesser extent,  NATO.

I don't care about European Federalism.

[[File:Anat.png]]Open Borders[[File:Anat.png]]
Maybe? I guess the Schengen Zone already exists where I live. Though it's better for a nation to open up its borders after reducing the welfare state's size, for people who are just genuine freeloaders and who refuse to work.
