Intro to Politics

The two main questions of politics are:
* how should the system be?
* when it isn't that way, what should you do about it?
[basically just applying the two questions that i call "getting real" to politics][the third question of "what are things like currently" is usually left unstated, but is still vital for any successful problem-solving]
== how should the system be? ==
=== the meta level ===
both questions are part of each other:
* how does the system handle people's desire to change the system?
* perfection can never be reached, so "when it isn't that way" is: always
== when it isn't that way, what should you do about it? ==
== see also: ==
* why care about politics
* some of my views and armchair thinking:
** issues to care about
** advanced democracy
** meta utopia
