Without someone or something to watch over, impose laws, and regulate. Pretty much providing guidance, the people would be lost. Having a people governing themselves would be utter chaos. That's why we have governments full of people who earned the right to rule over us.

...you are aware that the British Monarchy plays no role at all in Goverment within the UK now? They're just a mad family we pay for and, in exchange, entertain us and bring in the tourists.
As for a goverment full of people who've earned the right to rule...this is my opinion, but your average politician is the least sensible person to put in charge of a country. They're there because they want power and they want money (same difference, really) not because they want to benefit people. Half of them barely know who the 'people' are. Mostly the Tory half...
However, I must say I made a mistake when I said there were dozens of people in line for the throne. I was technically wrong on that count, my wife has kindly informed me. There are over 2500 people in line for the throne. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_of...British_throne - I think I'm on there somewhere.

If it weren't for the brits we'd be ruled by the fucking french, start showing some respect and keep your comments to yourself. I believe that drugs and shit should come second while royal events like the wedding should come first, because than later on we can focus on those issues. For example say we focus on drugs and shit and instead of planning the line of succession, because if the Queen should die and no one is next in line then we are as they say royally fucked. But that won't happen because the royal family said while we won't ignore drugs and violence, we shall put them aside from time to time to ensure the royal family is happy and content, and are able to continue regulating or/and ruling over the people.

You would be surprised at how ass-backwards and outdated a lot of the laws are here and that the majority of them still date back to when the Parliament was made here.
The laws all still include the royal family for decisions that are utterly, redundant.
The royal family does jack shit for us, so it seems most logical to become a republic but sadly with the aging population we've got they all cling to old ways and shun every fucking new idea.

I'm a little irritated that the royal wedding has taken priority over real news, that's all. And no, I do not consider it real news. The only things that make it different from any other run of the mill wedding are that they're royalty and that William is Diana's son. Huzzah, still not real news.
Also, something else that's on topic : A piece of my tooth broke off a few days ago, and as of now, what's left of it is split in half, which makes me feel like slamming my face into a wall until I lose consciousness.:Lurker & Unofficial Thread Killer of THiA:

Pretty much over with the girlfriend now. I have my limits and dignity.
If only it was as simple as parting ways... we are students and we live together, and guess what? We are writing the same master's paper together. How did this happen? It was I who welcomed her to join me last year, foolishly thinking that this girl was the one. With only a month left of presenting the paper and graduating from college, this puts me in a rather difficult position.
Can't reason with her today, but hopefully soon. I would like to present the paper with her (even though I did most of the work).Freedom of Information.
