Manifesto Beta Version

My view on the government is that they should be very black and white. As in, laws should be placed in a way that should help the general public. They should not be based on morals or because of religion. To me, they should be what is right and what is wrong. Not weather something is morally incorrect or unjust. Things like robbery, murder, fraud, assault. Things like these could be dangerous for the general public therefore they make it wrong and are correct to be illegal. However, gay marriage for example should be legal in my eyes because it causes harm to no one other then the two getting married. So what if it makes people uncomfortable  So what if its against someone's bible? The government is in place to protect the general public. Not make sure everyone gets along with each other and sing "Kumbaya". Things that don't come in black and white, like environment issues and social security- sure they aren't as black and white as the problems with laws that form due to people's morals opinions and should be discussed. This land of America should be equal to everyone and in order to keep things equal for everyone-laws should be as black and white as the pen on paper they write them down on, not based on what is morally acceptable and what the religion of the general public feel is an important factor on society.
