I believe having friends should be a fundamental right of each person. Of course, if the person does not want to have any friends, it should be respected. But I think we should have a system where there is "default friendship" and unless someone is really not interested in being your friend, two people should be friends by default.
Some people are too disturbed and dangerous to associate with.
Some people are bad company and will just drag you down with them.l
Some people just don't get along.
Some people have nothing to offer in a friendship and would just be a drain on their "default friends".
I don't see how you could change anything by having "default friends". People still have to hit it off and have some bond form between them for a real friendship to take place.
When it comes to lame ideas I think this ranks up there with the "Should the government provide everyone with a boyfriend/girlfriend?" thread someone made earlier this year.
