Parliamentary Democracy - atleast in a country where people like to follow rules/laws and aren't corrupt to the bone.
I do think sometimes though that an autocratic rule might be for the greater good i.e quick progress/solving major issues for a developing country, but then again it comes with its baggage of tyranny (as in I would not be able to post this online :erm: )
Do you vote?
Sometimes. I was so naive to have faith that things would change. They do but always for worse. :p
Unfortunately the worst consequences are on my job. At this moment I think I have no option, we tried all the parties and....( I won't say more. I'm at work. :p )
I've noticed an interesting thing. I lived under a draconic dictatorship and we were aware that our mail, call phones, even personal discussion were thoroughly checked, however people weren't as stressed about these things as they're now when we live in democracy.Quote:

Do you watch political debates on TV?
There aren't any "real" debates on TV here..it is mostly political rhetoric and a lot of shouting/slanging matches including the mediapersonb who think too highly of themselves :erm:
No football tonight - Will you sleep early? :p:
I'm afraid to plan what to do because as I've said I depend on somebody else's state. I'd like to watch a tv show from 23pm. Usually, the guy's voice makes me fall asleep.
Have you ever hit a person you cared of?
Never, though I've thought about it.
Where in the world do you think you might like to live, other than where you are now?
Definitely Greece. It's in the same balkanic area, it's sunny and warm, people are friendly and full of joy of life. Wonderful climate, wonderful language, wonderful music.......
I shall never forgive my grandparents who left such a beautiful place to come to.......:angryfire:
What kind of holiday would you like? To lay on a beach and relax or to visit new places and explore the unknown?
explore the unknown definitely...thesedays I guess we have to lay anywhere we can though :erm:
(Move to Greece, ody is waiting :p: ...and oh souvlaki, but I bet you don't eat that either :mad: )
What's the longest distance you have ever driven?
About 100 m when I was a kid and my father who was a driver let me "play" with the wheel on an empty road. :p
I don't have a licence and I never tried to get one. When I was 11 yo a terrible accident happened under my eyes and since then I have a reticence about driving. Not to mention that in this country the traffic is chaotic and I'm too shy to breakthrough.
Matter of fact I have a lot of ( not very close but very heartful) relatives there and many childhood friends who belonged to political refugees that returned home. Ironically I've never been in Greece although it's in the neighbourhood, I have a cousin who keeps on inviting me and holidays are quite cheap. And souvlaki....It's one of the few meat dishes that I like. I'm mad for it. And we also have such things here called "frigarui" https://www.google.ro/search?q=friga...g&ved=0CAUQ_AU.Quote:
