There is Liberal Deomcracies like the US, UK and most of europe, where people can vote and the government allowed private properties and business and does not interfere too much in the economy. Communism like China and Russia in the past, this is where the government owns everything and people have limited political rights. There is also fascism like Germany and Italy in the Second World War, this is a chaotic system where the government rigidly controls the social structure of the country.\n\nIf I were you I'd look up Liberalism, Socialism, Communism and Fascism on wikipedia or answers.com. Or even better get a book from the library.

Not by a long shot. Growing unemployment. Rising inflation. No Healthcare for the majority of the people here. Rampant political corruption. A growing police state mentality. And way too many crazy fundamentalist Christian nutjobs who think being an obedient slave to the Republican Oligarchy equates with freedom.  You want a real country to live in? Try New Zealand. Or the EU or even Costa Rica. Far better places.

No.\n\nIt's a free country, people should be able to go outside anytime they want. The government couldn't restrict us from going outdoors. That's crazy and dictatorship-like.

As far as I know: Yes, under the restriction of living in a so called Western living zone.\n\nAnd the foreigner has no written right to get such a permit, it's more a generous practice.

pretty sure that has something to do with the nature of political leaders. do they ever follow the wishes of the people, in any country?

Every country has the government and political system it deserves. That includes the electoral rules and systems.\n\nSo if things are not right (and I agree that they are not right), the people will have to act accordingly.\n\nNo country can be ruled or controlled against the will of the people. However, if the people are too dumb, ignorant or lazy to care for their own future, you get a country like the USA.\n\nThose who don't care will be taken care of.

None.  I don't want BIG government controlling my life - or my kid's lives - laying claim on them for any period of time.  "Mandatory" and "Freedom" do not generally mesh well together.

No, it's a free country.

I come from Egypt. I love it! It's got great scenery, awesome weather, and the people are very friendly. The government, though, is very corrupt; and life standards are quite low. I highly recommend it for vacationers. It may also be good for businessmen. But, otherwise, the political and economic conditions are not very good.

Hello again :-)\n\nI think this question can be answered in the same way as the one on illegitimate rule. New Zealand supports democracy and all legal efforts to globalise it.\n\nSo as I said previously, New Zealand, as a supporter of democracy, does not support the concept of unconstitutional or undemocratic governments. However, it also firmly believes in the rule of law (both domestic and international) and so does not support the use of unilateral non-UN sanctioned action to topple undemocratic governments. It believes that the UN/Commonwealth is the appropriate vehicle through which sanctions or other actions should be channelled. To the best of my knowledge New Zealand supports and complies with every UN mandated sanction.

International rules aren't that strict. It's often determined by which country you are a citizen of, not where you are born. There are even some exceptions to that, however.
