          Also, Pegasus was just the name of that particular flying horse. Not the name of the species.

        Public transport too. It really seems like every time a public service is privatised it goes to shit, almost as if for-profit motives aren’t aligned to public interest.

    Imperfect political and economic systems like our current version of capitalism and democracy. (Both could be better, or even replaced by something different which is better.)

    Violence.

    Judging without critical and unbiased thinking.

      Thats impossoble because a perfect systen depends on one’s morals which differ from person to person. Whats a perfect system to you may be a bad system to me.

        A perfect system would be able to deal with this. Of course, that’s a purely ideological goal which probably wouldn?t be reached in practise. But I think we could gain a lot on the road there.

      I’m curious how you propose we achieve a perfect political system without building on a series of imperfect ones?

        In practise, we probably don’t. But maybe we could speed up a lot of progress if we could remove some obstacles and think about it really carefully.

      Could be worse, I guess. I live in a “secular” democracy that essentially collects members fees for the Catholic and Lutheran churches (and only those two!) via the federal income tax.
