Government - April 2007

One of my weakest areas in world history is the understanding of the infatuation with Communism. I do not understand why any country, and especially its people would want to be in a Communist state. Nowhere have I ever read where the people are glad to be living in this repressed state of life under Communist rule. In all Communist countries the people or not allowed to leave and in some cases walls were even built. I was visiting a Communist web site and even there at their forum there was a man from mainland China trying to inform them of the dangers of Communism and how people die at the hands of Communism but his pleas where going into deaf ears. I got on this tangent after watching the Motorcycle Diaries. So I looked up Che Guevara and in his early years he was disturbed by all the repressed people in South America, however nowhere did I read in his bio where his ideal of Communism really freed anyone. Look at Cuba, did Che and Castro and their revolution really help the people?

I think that the basic structure of our society is inherited from the 19th century, and worked well then. For example a large number of media outlets held in diverse hands made it difficult for any one owner to supress truth - and this acted in a cleansing way to bring scandal to light. Now, however, media, for example, has grown monolithic, and therefore prone to manipulation, and doesnt act in the healthy cleansing way of old. An example, in the last 30 years is to compare the Watergate scandal, with that of the invasion of Iraq. The overall structure of society even only 30 years ago (especially the widespead ownership of the media then) operated to heal a wrong and bring down entrenched power, while today a concentrated media prevents a debate from reaching the required strengh to do this even in the event of a war arguably convened for the benefit of special interests.
Special interests are a constant - society needs to act automatically to keep them in place. How?

I need suggestions for writing a proposal to a problem that is facing either the City of Atlanta, the state of Georgia, or the entire United States. My proposal will only be three pages long so please don't suggest anything like "hunger" or "homelessness." So far my only idea has been a proposal to help reduce Atlanta traffic but I'd like some other ideas.
Thanks!
