Where is the model?

Look man, in my personal opinion we live in a media fueled world and unfortunately our politics have fell victim to this as much as anything thing else. Instead of getting yourself caught up in the party vs. party circus, find what is important to you and vote on it. Sometimes in maybe republican, sometimes it maybe democrat. When it comes to race, religion, sex and polotics never take sides. it makes you blind to all of the other great ideas being produced by ppl that you quite possibly hate just because they are not on your "side". -Peace and Love

-George Carlin/Genius

So far, no GOP model for governing has been presented. So far someone on another site has mentioned Monaco. But only because there is no taxation there I presume.

My bet is that rather than do so, the right that inhabit this site will attack or insult or ignore.

There's never been a country that I know of that was run exclusively on US conservative rule.

Well... rules might be a bit strict. Guidelines, tendencies, something that might have us believe that conservatives might just have something other than their own imaginations as reference for what it is that they contend works and what they contend does not. They point to Greece as example of what does not work, fine, but we can point to the netherlands and Germany as examples of socialist based societies that seem to work quite well. Point is, the GOP, when it gets right down to it - has nothing but supposition both in history or in the present for its contentions. Now why should any of us believe that what they claim will work if it never ever has and does not now? Simply because they say, it didn't work before in this country because we didn't do it hard enough - isn't much of a persuader.

Germany works quite well? Weren't they kind of the shitheads that started 2 world wars? Theft isn't social yet that is all socialism is about.
