I think that the US and many other democratic republics are on the right path but are all cursed with inequaties, imperfections and corruption.

First off as far as the inequalities go, I think the best place to take care of these is making sure that every person should have the right to a full and top notch education. For too many people in far to many nations this is a near impossibility due to economic reasons. The fact that our own country, touted as the best in the world by many citizens have schools that resemble crumbling prisons that don't even have needed supplies for its students speaks volumes about such problems.

As far as imperfections and corruption go, they need to be corrected with extreme prejudice. When you look at everything from the dot.com scam to enron and the crooked corporate owned policians who serve and facilitate their needs I don't need to write a book on where reform needs to start.

Well thats it in a nutshell, but there are a lot of details and second level problems that I don't have the time to go into now.

I'm sure we will have a few other progressive thinkers on the board add to these obvious facts.
