Choice rationale For the Perfect Society: What do you value in society and how does your construction reinforce those values?

My perfect society would consist of Scott Brown, Muhammad Ali, Sandy Cheeks, Mother Mary, Lewis Black as they would each be key societal contributors, in their own right.
Scott Brown serves the role of leader and representative of the society. Scott brown is a very versatile political leader whose dedication to the good of his people supersedes his dedication to his political party. Brown voted for his party’s line only eighty percent of what he did in the senate, but broke with the GOP on voting for an early version of the democrats banking reform bill, but forced them to drop a tax clause which would harm our local economy. Also, it is unlikely that Brown’s leadership would be contested as he holds a fifty five approval rating, compared to Barrack Obama whose approval rating is at fifty four percent.
Muhammad Ali is a the first three time Heavy Weight champion. He is known for his boxing proficiency and strength. He is the protecting and military of the society as he is a virtually undefeated warrior. His strength could also be used for labor.
Sandy Cheeks is a main character in the television program, SpongeBob Square Pants. She is known as an inventor and scientists in the series as she has created: A teleporter, spaceship, cloning machine, and so much more. Also, she has undergone many adventures with SpongeBob exploring the depths of their underwater town, known as bikini bottom. She can put these adventuring skills to use as the society’s explorer.
Mother Mary is a divine addition to an ideal society. Mother Mary is a nurturing mother figure who would have no trouble nurturing the other members of society, as she had the challenge of nurturing Jesus, the son of God. In stories such as Sir Gawain and the Green Knight Mother Mary’s image was put on a shield, emphasizing her worth as a protector. Naturally she would be society’s healer as she would protect everyone’s health.
Lastly, author and comedian Lewis Black is a comedic necessity for an ideal society. Black has hosted the laugh Detroit comedy festival, and is famous for many comedy acts of his own such as: “Red, White, and Screwed”. Black has a unique and an uncanny talent for satirical comedy covering many current topics from Gay marriage to his opinion on social networking sites. Also, Black is an intellectual who has written many books such as Me of Little Faith and Nothing’s Sacred. These books offer entertaining insight to some of life’s most peculiar dilemmas and trivialities and demonstrate Black’s talent as an enlightener.
