CMV: It's really hard being a centrist.

**I AM AN IMPARTIAL MOD, PLEASE DO NOT GIVE ME DOWNVOTED TO HELL. JUST A DISCUSSION (I'M NOT AMERICAN).**<br><br>I'm a centrist and from what I observe centrist have the hardest time in today's politics because:<br><br>a) Everyone likes to take centrist ideas and being a centrist is tiresome because:<br><br>- People on right want to take centre-right ideas from centrists and take credit for them. centre-right ideas are best example of empiricism in policy. They want centre-right to serve their base without giving credit. It's very frustrating.<br><br>- centre-left ideas are best example of experimental proven empiricism with lots of examples but still socially and economically working. why? well the base of left want to take radical centre-left ideas and imply them in radical manner. they want radical centre-left be It or radical left to be it but never centre left why? well radical left sounds radical, right sounds radical but centre-left not radical enough. but from a centrist prescriptive it's hard because if we want to do centre left like manifesto in a developed country, we will need lot of investment to create new base. centrist have to believe in centre-left ideas because they want to do It but it's not just like mere radical base, it's a movement. It's very complex radical movement It's a movement of mere proven empiricism. Communism and Leninism were also talked about why It should be done (I don't say all centre-left are communists). <br><br>example of centre-left policies:<br><br>All examples are in context of scrapped economy (centrists would say let capitalism work but with lot of regulatory bodies). lets say we are in a service economy and we are pretty rich. <br><br>- better regulation of markets by state. (strength markets with better state support). centre-left example is Denmark.<br>- every business will have to pay their employees a mandated minimum wage competitive to current economic state of the country.<br>- reducing wealth gap by increasing taxes and reducing taxes in lower strata.<br>- drive green energy to create jobs, boost industries and sell to other countries to boost economy. centre-left example is Sweden<br>- better state organisations to serve people with lots of regulations. regulate markets to boost economy.<br><br>b) If a centrist votes centre-right in election people on right will try to sell centre-right ideas and make centre-left people vote base on centre-left ideas (in order to vote left). and vice versa. <br><br>example:<br><br>lets say a centre-right party is in government and centre-left party has to choose options to vote base on centre-left ideas or support centre-right policies and vote on centre-right ideas. If centre-left party votes centre-right ideas, right party will say we won polls because we are the strength of centre-right ideas. If centre-left party votes centre-left ideas, they will say centrists want to take centre-left ideas from us (radical centre-left base) but we co-opted centre-left for good. there are empiricism to prove centre-left policies but centre-left party will say we co-opted centrists. <br><br>c) centrist want centre to win but centre parties are not popular and they are not winning. centre parties are always being shot to death because everyone wants to be left or right to win.<br><br>d) centrists want to serve people. they want to do whatever is good for the people but it's not just matter of vote. It's a movement to win a seat in government.<br><br>e) centrist want to be middle ground. they think It's the best place to be and It's centrist dilemma. It's a very complex dilemma. but It's not just mere centrist dilemma. It's a movement from centre to serve people. centre-left and centre-right want centre to serve them but centrist know It's not that simple.<br><br>f) centrist have to handle big forces from radical base. It's centre base to serve people and biggest force on centre are radical right and radical left who can drop centre with just one polls. a mere proven empiricism with lots of examples from centre can be dropped just by radical polls base on radical left or right ideas. It's a very complex dilemma for centrists.<br><br>g) centrists have to be socially responsible. they want centre to be socially responsible. but left radical right and radical left like to imply centre is socially irresponsible for a good cause. centre-left will imply centre is socially irresponsible but it's not that. centre-right is just like radical movement base on radical base radical centre-right base.<br><br>h) centrists want to serve centre but centre is not popular. radical centre is radical and can It a mere movement to drop centre from radical polls base on radical ideas? no but radical base can imply radical radical centre base to serve people and socially irresponsible centre. It's centrist dilemma.<br><br>I) It's very difficult for centrist to have main stream media attention. why? well radical left and right are base on radical radical ideas. It's a very complex dilemma for centre to be radical but still socially responsive. why? well radical right and radical left are like movement and like to imply centre is socially irresponsible to serve people.<br><br>**CMV centrist have the hardest time to serve people.**
