Charles de Gaulle (Kristin Carosotto P5)

Actions depend on the circumstances. It is moral for leaders of a country to become extremists but only to a certain extent and when this extremism is for the greater good. Now, when it comes to the argument of extremism in Germany I disagree with the crimes that are being committed. This extremism in not for the greater good. I myself believe in three major tenets: A powerful executive, heavy involvement of the state in the economy, and complete independence in foreign policy. Although this may seem extreme to some I only enforce these three beliefs because it is for the good of the country of France and the people. Hitler, or other powerful leaders in Germany may argue that their actions are for the benefit of the country and their people yet they are to condemn a whole race. Extremism can help greatly depending on the actions that are wanted to be carried out, and the results of these actions. Extremism that benefits the state and the people is worth the control. Extremism that is dictatorial and does not benefit the majority is not civil nor just.
