Daddy can I grow up to be anything I want?
No, not under our current system.
Most right-thinking people would agree that all people are born equal and have the right to choose their leaders. What you would expect to see in a real democracy is the head of state chosen on merit by the public. So why, in the UK, should we tolerate an unelected head of state? The only requirement to become our head of state is to be the child of the existing head of state. The opinion of the public does not matter. They do not elect the head of state and neither can they get rid of them. Sure, our head of state has little actual power but they still receive huge amounts of money from the taxpayers. Why does one family get to be head of state? If the public want to crown a succession of decedents from one line why does it have to be the same one? Why can't another family be become monarchs? Why not mine? Or are we not all born equal?
Why do the public want it this way? They clearly do or something would have been done about it. Why don't they want to be free citizens? Why do they want to remain subjects of the crown?
Albert Einstein knew why when he said, “The minority, the ruling class at present, has the schools and press, usually the Church as well, under its thumb. This enables it to organize and sway the emotions of the masses, and make its tool of them.”
Prince Charles showed that he understood this very clearly when he said, "Something as curious as the monarchy won't survive unless you take account of people's attitudes. After all, if people don't want it, they won't have it."
btw have you ever read the British constitution? You haven't. It hasn't been written.
