Amata LireinHey, if today's Galnet article is any indication, especially the excert from the Federal Times, the Empire will soon be more democratic then the Federation after it has been turned into an outright corporatocracy.
Still better than the Empire. You falsely assume that my character would stop hating the Empire when it'd get more democratic.

SakashiroI think FDev is trying too hard to make the Elite universe an imitation of the real world. Things are becoming somewhat predictable lately.
21st, 34th... Still humans with the same pattern of flaws.

And why not? Science and tech are improved during the time, but it's still the same human society. With flaws haven't gone, but transformed over time.

Drugs are still illegal. So it's easier to ban them than to deal with the addiction issues. So it's 13 centuries gone, but humankind has not developed a reliable, working addiction treatment measures. And probably not gone far in understanding the nature of addictions, because one must try once (twice, etc.) to became addicted, and why one tries this - is still a question to be solved.
Second shot. The Empire. Marlin Duval was a woman. And Arissa Lavigny-Duval is the only female leader of the Empire after her, yet she got that post after a political turmoil. They even call her "Emperor". So Empire apparently is a highly-patriarchal society. Nuff said.

As for drugs, it's not black and white, there's always going to be substances that are going to be heavily regulated due to their toxicity or addictiveness. Deregulation of drugs isn't always the answer.
