Which would you suggest?
Norway, or make your own tied to the gold standard.

:lol: Yep, that's me.
My initial thought to the question posed is doggie style and getting reamed by the self serving assholes we elect.
I vote pure reverse cowgirl.
Seriously, what a completely stupid set of options.
Interesting .We'll put you down as a socialist ;-) You're not an American I hope; lemme guess......French? By the way, here are a couple paragraphs from a piece written by a sitting president of an EU country, I'm sure you'll enjoy this:"
"The second reason for European economic problems—not specifically European, but worse in Europe then elsewhere—has to do with the quality, productivity and efficiency of its economic and social system. Europe is characterized by a seemingly people-friendly, non-demanding, paternalistic and—in consequence—insufficiently productive economic and social system called die soziale Markwirtschaft, or social democracy. This system, with its generous social benefits, weakened motivation, shortened working hours, prolonged years of study, lowered retirement ages, diminished the supply of labor—both at the macro level and structurally—and led to very slow economic growth.
...
Europeans today prefer leisure to performance, security to risk-taking, paternalism to free markets, collectivism and group entitlements to individualism. They have always been more risk-averse than Americans, but the difference continues to grow. Economic freedom has a very low priority here. It seems that Europeans are not interested in capitalism and free markets and do not understand that their current behavior undermines the very institutions that made their past success possible. They are eager to defend their non-economic freedoms—the easiness, looseness, laxity and permissiveness of modern or post-modern European society—but when it comes to their economic freedoms, they are quite indifferent."
Only from a conservative(the options, of course)....lol....I vote pure reverse cowgirl.

I usually lean awesome.
Given your avatar I would have thought your lean would have been FABULOUS!
Doesn't Down Under = Australia? Are you one of the upside-down people?
Just because one classifies themselves as a "moderate" or "centrist," it does not make them indecisive. I'm absolutely sick of that characterization.
Curious as to the political slant of this forum.
Indecisive moderate?
That's bull**** - why this notion that moderates don't have firm beliefs and values? Just because we don't fit into your cookie cutter crappy selections of crude partisan clubs doesn't mean we don't have defined and particular views.
More like: we're not willing to sacrifice what we believe in for the sake of fitting in with one crowd or the other.
None of the above.

Somewhere between progressive and moderate.
