My Manifesto, yo!

When it comes to the government, I think that it is important to be involved with the government's country. Especially when involving the economy. It is important that they provide health care for those who are sick and/or injured. The government should provide free health care, so that everyone gets to benefit and not worry about not having enough money. I also believe that the government should be open with their country, and provide personal information so that all of the country and the world knows what the government is like and decide if they're a good leader or not.
The government should also be involved with the media. However, not be TOO involved. It's good that the U.S. has internet, television, phones, technology, etc. But I wouldn't like it if our phone calls were recorded and eve's dropped, nor would the rest of the country appreciate it. Not only that, but to track and control our internet history, and what websites we viewed recently, or to even take away our freedom of browsing all-together. The government should provide the freedom to browse (such as Google).
When it comes to the dress-code of a country, this subject can be a little touchy. Yes, I believe in having free-will and the right to dress how we want (whether religious-wise, cultural, etc.), but I don't think the government should allow nudity. In my opinion, it seems too revealing, and can come with bad consequences. However, controlling on WHAT exactly people can and can't wear seems too extreme and a little TOO involved.
As for military and the justice system, I think it's important for the military to have the items and weapons they need. For the justice system, I don't believe it's good to give a lot of money for it. I think prisons these days in America are rather too "homey". Sure, we can't STARVE our prisoners, but I find it rather ridiculous that for whatever their crime is, they get provided health care, full meals, beds, bathrooms, free-time, and even computers and television. The only difference is that they have bars around the windows.
All in all, I believe it's important to involve the government, but not involve them TOO much into the people's lives.
