Republic of Kuwait

I don’t care if George Bush ruled our country as long as I can pursue my best interest, which is not happening because everything is prohibited “mamnoo3” except for few privileged immoral minority, where as everybody can pursue their best interest equally and fairly.

But that is not the question. The question is do we need a ruling family to do that for us? i.e. enforce equality and justice? Can’t we Kuwaitis take on our selfs?

Their classic argument is that ruling families act as a safety breach for a stable country. As if there was no monarch, a country may collapse. This is true to some extent. However when I think of changing the entire administrative body to the betterment of Kuwait I see my self as not that keen to hold onto our current monarchy I might opt for other alternatives. But do I really want to?

If you had the chance to vote, what would you opt for?







Kuwait Should Remain....

I'm not too friendly with a monarchy.
Then again, a great risk with revolting and instituting a new government is the corruption that will be bound to follow the pseudo-coup and the power/money hungry politicos/forces/sects that would want to control the country for their own financial benefit. It's a Catch-22. For now.

I think the first step is to start from the ground up: Education and awareness. And education once again.

Maybe! I think your right for the time being a monarchy is the safest option we have.\

It shouldn’t be a catastrophic revolt; the transition should be peaceful through dialog, to overthrow them. The people should have more power where they become more independent and understand the pampering state is not there for ever!!

I'm not too fond of monarchies, cause it's mostly a "my benifit" thing to the ruling family, BUT seeing what the Kuwaiti population is made of, I have to say, monarchy is better than the outcome of the voting (which would probablly end up being the religious dudes), and I for one, am REALLY REALLY REALLY not fond of them, no offense to anyone. But I like having options not impositions.

Kuwait is going to hell, and will run out of oil before it ever develops a real economy :)
