[minionofmidas]

1.) Felons and those in jail should have the same voting rights as all other citizens.
AGREE. Although local elections might be problematic.
2.) Ex-felons should have the same voting rights as all other citizens.
STRONGLY AGREE. Basically a condition of democracy.
3.) In general, people are just too obsessed with sex.
DISAGREE. It's in our genetic code to be obsessed with sex.
4.) We would all be a lot better off if people followed the Golden Rule.
DISAGREE. Capitalist society is impossible under the Golden Rule. The Poorest would be better off, but the bulk of the world's population would not be if we returned to the Neolithicum.
5.) The government's main responsibility should be to keep order.
DISAGREE. The government's main responsibility should be to conserve Democracy. Define "order".
6.) Music and the arts are essential for a community to flourish and should be funded by the government.
AGREE in principle. Has to be done right though. Super-subsidized state orchestras and theatres that noone wants to hear are not the way to go. Nor are "market forces".
7.) The right to revolution in the New Hampshire state constitution is a good thing that all states should have.
DISAGREE. It's an empty phrase that makes no difference whatsoever in practice. And of course the people have the right to overthrow an undemocratic government anyways - it can't be granted by the government. The very notion of the government allowing the people to rebel against the government is rather ridiculous, don't yu think?
8.) Improvement of the human race through eugenics should be a goal of the government.
STRONGLY DISAGREE. "Vote SDP for a larger cranium and abolution of the appendix"? LOL.
9.) A Department of Peace should be added to the presidential administration.
DISAGRREE/UNSURE. What's it exactly going to do that's not already done by the Department of Agression and the State Department?
10.) The voting age should be lowered to 16.
STRONGLY AGREE. Although I prefer 14.
11.) Immigration is one of the worst problems the United States faces.
AGREE. Although the US is much better at handling it than Europe. Of course the only sensible - and the only morally acceptable - policy is legalizing all immigration.
12.) The government should not have any business with people's library records, gun purchases, or credit card use.
STRONGLY AGREE on part one.
STRONGLY DISAGREE on part two as long as we're "only" talking knowledge. A lot of murders would be much easier to solve if the US government (or the states, I don't care) had such records.
UNSURE. Somebody will have to keep these records, if only to combat fraud. And I'd trust the worst ofgovernments before I trust a large corporation. Then again these are going to have thses data anyways, they're not going to give 'em upü to the government are they? Make that an AGREE.
13.) Restrictions on cellphone wiretapping should be loosened.
DISAGREE. I don't want to be wiretapped. I don't know about the US legal situation, but restrictions in Germany certainly don't need loosening, and restrictions in ITaly are in desperate need of tightening.
14.) Criticism of religions such as Christianity and Islam are not protected by free speech.
STRONGLY DISAGREE. Of course they are. So is criticism of their critics.
15.) The drinking age should be lowered or abolished.
In the US, STRONGLY AGREE.

Lunar,

Even though it's written in the constitution you strongly disagree that the governments job is to maintain order?

I don't believe that is the 'main' purpose of a government.   The question wasn't contextual to the United States, I didn't factor in the Constitution.

It's not that I believe that a government shouldn't provide order, the question was basically whether that was the primary purpose.  In my humble opinion, a government's sole purpose is to provide a mechanism for people to act collectively.  Yes, this does sometimes mean an enforcement of order, but not always.  Sometimes people demand a degree of disorder in exchange for other values (privacy, for example). 

The main reason I wrote "strongly disagree" for my answer instead of a generic "disagree" though, was because I feel it's dangerous for a government to obsess over the theme of 'order.'  I haven't researched it, but I imagine that most tyrannies have been justified by establishing 'order' as their primary purpose.

To address the Constitution, are you referring to the Preamble?

You must be logged in to read this quote.

If so, yes, this does clearly establish 'order' as one of the main goals of our government, but not clearly THE main one.  I am kind of nitpicking at this point, I know, but again, I'm wary of infatuation with order.
