Is Democracy a fools paradise?

Our country was set up to protect the rights and freedoms of the individual from the will of the many- Anti Democracy

all laws are approved or dissolved by the masses of people

Thanks for that explanation, i reckon i had better do some reading up of political systems, quick sharp'

Do you think that any country who has a monarch as head of state, could possibly be described as Democratic?

Do you think that your successive governments have done that?

Less and less so, Kennedy was good, and his brother would have also been a good president, Ron Paul gives me some hope that all hope is not lost

Thats democracy for you.........NOT.

And young Americans are (supposedly) dying to bring democracy to other countries, seems to me, your boys should be brought home ASAP to fight for democracy in America.

...could i ask you, if you have noticed any particular group of people who have gained through one way or another a lot of money?

...i have noticed that a certain group of people seem to always be involved in guiding or trying to steer the American government in certain directions.

I also think i know that a certain group of people, control the Finances of America, who it is that at present governs the Federal Reserve and the have almost always controlled the Federal Reserve.

And if my source material is correct, the control of the Federal reserve was achieved by nefarious means, would that be correct?

What about Duke, do you rate him at all?

gee, you're not obsessed with some imaginary jewish conspiracy.

So what do you guys reckon, is Democracy just a big con job?

Nope. Democracy in it's pure form is great.

Or to put it another way:

It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried.

Sir Winston Churchill
British politician (1874 - 1965)​

What stinks is the pseudo Democracy we now have that is part Socialist and part Democracy. They are contrary to each other, they conflict with each other and they drag each other down and will continue to do so until there is nothing left to salvage. Then the Socialists will say, see, Democracy failed.

"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries."

Sir Winston Churchill
British politician (1874 - 1965)

.. democracy is perfect.

as long as the majority of the population is "enlightened" (or half a brain at least)

if the majority of the population is retarded as now, then yes, democracy becomes democrazy.

But what about the leaders of our political paties and therefore governments also, don't you think that party leaders are to blame, in the firt place?

this is bit stupid.

the people voted "socialist stuff" into the government, healthcare and such (socialism) people taking care of the people through taxes (Which seems to be called socialism lol)

and through democracy.

so its a bit redundant statement made in ignorance (and he´s just being malicious bit)
