Vote for totalitarianism

Another beautiful morning, and a 30 minute running reminder that back muscles take longer to heal as you get older. The tidal loch was unusually high, but this is probably due to the effect of the full moon, rather than melting ice caps.
One of the big problems with democratically elected governments is that they are too afraid to make radical and unpopular decisions, preferring to cater for what they think the majority of voters want to hear, and generally prostituting themselves in the hope of re-election.
The world as a whole is faced with a series of radical and unpopular choices if we are to break the destructive cycle of international capitalism, consumerism, and environmental despoliation.
Therefore the solution is simple – we need to vote for fair and honest totalitarian governments.
