What are your political principles?

The thing is, despite my gift in the liberal arts, I choose to pursue STEM fields as I know that it's the only way for me to gain market value. Nobody gives a shit about how 'cultured' you are. I can only imagine how desperate you were for a job that you settled for one requiring frequent relocation.

Kid, when you have a job, you can talk about the workplace.

Pooty has a Job! His job is to IMAGINE He is a Likable Person.

I'm a happiness maximizing utilitarian, though a functioning legal system needs to act as though it were either deontological or rule-based utilitarian in 95% of cases.

I think these are really important:

1. Safe and efficient technological advancement.

2. Effective defensive measures against existential threats.

3. Intellectual, creative and political freedom (to reasonable practical limits).

4. A level of earned trust in necessary institutions, e.g. low levels of corruption, safe drinking water, etc.

5. More controversial but a high level of talent being drawn or otherwise instantiated in your society.
