why do so many people criticise government policies without offering a better solution themselves?

Question

for example people complain about the goverment building new nuclear power stations, what would they rather the goverment do the provid power that will be practible

g has a piont but if you think an action should stop, isn't that an alternative solution

Answer 1

hello tony is that you ????!!!!

Answer 2

It is right and proper that people should complain about government policies.
I do, you do. we all do, except , maybe, the government.
Some if us - sometimes - offer a different approach.
In the example quoted, i.e. about nuclear power I believe, cranky though I may be, that small is beautiful and that we should envisage fitting every house in the UK with solar panels and small wind turbines. I argue that if we can modify all houses to use North Sea Gas 35 years ago we can do the same sort of thing now.
Of course, the government disagrees with me so I plug away hoping that one day more people will agree than disagree.
And if I feel despondent I can always go to live say in China or Indonesia.
So we have not only the right, but the duty to moan and groan and be generally complaining in the hope that we have some effect.
And mostly we do.

Answer 3

Alrighty then. Instead of nuclear power we put lots of wind turbines in the north sea, we somehow work out a way to use the tides on the river severn to generate electricity (it's the second most tidal river in the world), we use methane given off by landfil to generate electricity (as methane is a worse greenhouse gas than CO2 it would benefit the environment, even though we're still making CO2, plus it's just being wasted now)

The problem is not people not coming up with solutions to the government's problems, there are plenty of them. The problem is the government doesn't listen, doesn't care and conforms to an imaginary 'middle line' - they try to please everyone, as do ALL other major political parties. They are all the same, there would be absolutely no difference under a tory or lib dem government.

Answer 4

Personally, I think nuclear power is the way to go. For the people who say what are we going to do with the waste, we have thousands of depleted oil and gas wells that they could inject the waste into. The oil and gas was trapped there for millions of years, why not pump nuclear waste down there. But to answer your question, people are stupid, and complaining with solution or alternatives, takes the power of thought, and most people don't think before they speak. They just spew verbal diarrhoea.

Answer 5

Funniest aspect to this point: "that's the entire aspect of delegating skill, enable decrease aspect officials tense about the small info even as the president concerns about the tremendous issues" Don;t you imagine the 'small info' are already widely used contained in the regulation? does no longer the IRS ought to operate interior the regulation? the position did the concept categorical communities must be situation to better scrutiny come from? A 'low aspect worker'? some 'low aspect' legal experts or accountants or different workers determined on the form of coverage for that IRS branch? Can any IRS worker set or substitute coverage at will? even as it develop into delivered to the interest of 'higher mamagement' no longer some thing develop into finished. Why? i do no longer doubt that the President did not expressly direct such action from the IRS. i'm extremely particular that it develop into made glaring that such action might want to bypass unpunished might want to it ensue. to this point it HAS lengthy gone unpunished. enable's see who receives tossed lower than the bus first and what they ought to assert lower than penalty of purgery. No 'low aspect' worker is prepared to lose each and every thing, which includes his freedom and doubtless his kinfolk (to divorce/estrangement with the aid of encarceration). As with Beghazi, the tale is not basically that it 'got here about' yet how develop into it even conceivable that it would want to ensue and that reaction to what 'got here about'. each and every American must be outraged!

Answer 6

At loss with self lack of knowledge on what went wrong out there.
Were having problems with misinterpretation, miscommunication,communication failures and communication break-down.
So the only thing to do is to beat the empty tins and make all the noise in planet of apes.

Answer 7

It may be easier to complain, as some suggest here, than to offer constructive solutions but, could you please tell me who in the government is the one that would pay attention to yours or my solution? If you have an answer to that, then you have answered your question.

The problem is that these clowns are supposed to work for us and to listen to us and not the other way around! Hellooooooo!

Answer 8

good question. because they like to sound clever by repeating other people's arguments and presentin them as their own and also because some like to jump on the bandwagon


...... but then again, its the role of government to initiate successful policies not the electorate and the electorate have got a legitimate right to criticise govt policy regardless of whether they have got a good solution or not.

Answer 9

why give suggestions when you can complain and expect the people who you complain to,to be able to fix their problems. the goverment is built by the people. the people who we elect to elect the right person for the correct positions in office.

Answer 10

The government isn't able to deal with better solutions, it isn't politcally expedient.

But in fairness, no one can provide "practible" power. It just isn't cost effective.

Answer 11

Politicians promises to do things which will benefit the society.But they normally do things purely because THEY think is right, of course a whole country wont agree with it. Look what bush is doing to America, do you think that's right?
