they're not a problem anymore and if you honestly think people care about getting rid of the monarchy youre dead wrong. like i said if people wanted to get rid of it, believe me, it would go away. theres no cultural inertia when it comes to keeping monarchies anymore, but people like it and i do mean the vast majority of people living within those countries.

you can call it whatever you want - war, "armed conflict", whatever the fuck it doesn't make a difference; the President had to ask congress politely "please let me go to war with Iraq" and they had to take a vote and approve. He didn't just say "fuck everyone" and go to war with whomever he wanted

getting rid of the monarchy wont save money, a "powerless president" (this is what you would get if a westminster system-country were to abolish the monarchy) is just as useless as the queen, requires an election cycle (expensive), would have many of the same "useless/tyrannical" powers, would be completely unknown (see the last five presidents of germany - try naming one) and therefore completely devoid of prestige, and would provide no tourism revenue

okay weirdo whatever, bowing and calling her your majesty are different things. "The President of Ireland is addressed as Your Excellency or in the Irish language, a Shoilse. Alternatively, one may address the president simply as President or in the Irish language a Uachtaráin." The Irish people have been brainwashed and forced to call the irish president your excellency

try not calling the queen your majesty and see what happens. i wonder if youll get arrested? give me a break, dude. also, julia gillard (prime minister of australia) got some flack from the press for not bowing, as did michelle obama and president obama (they all shook her hands instead) and guess what dude? the queen didnt give a shit.
