This fails to respond to my response?

I mean personally I support communism, but I have yet to see it implemented without authoritarian influence. The Native Americans have a pretty decent communal system, which the US should learn from.

Well more specifically it's a democratic republic, which would answer this question, however the future will likely bring change as votes are cast!

The sun does not in fact orbit around the earth. Have you played Kerbal Space Program? It might help with your understanding.

The US has been making substantial steps towards reducing emissions. The amount of money funding fusion research right now is incredible! My brother currently works for a private fusion research company and getting to tour was a thrill in itself!

Well there's a difference in governance. If the US was not a democracy with protections for private property, HSR would've likely been complete. Not to mention the vast differences in terrain which pose difficult engineering questions to be answered.

It's fairly easy to disagree with this claim, but to each their own!

High Speed Rail is in a Renaissance phase here in the US, it's incredibly exciting! I'm not sure how this fits the current discourse here though.

I'm sorry, but can you speak literally? These metaphors are unhelpful and distract from the debate at hand.

They support energy cooperation, sounds like a win-win.

That sounds inhumane, and I would not support animal neglect in this form.

The beauty of a democratic government is the nature of shifts in policy. It may not be able to act as swiftly as an authoritarian regime, but it does allow all sides to get their time to share input. I've never claimed the US to be the arbitor of morality, they've made their fair share of mistakes. Fortunately the democratic process allows us to Garner a better understanding as a whole, and thus work towards the solutions that being forth the most common good. Very utilitarian in nature.
