HI TJ,
I agree with everything in your latest posting except the remark
about Greece. Like the US South, prior to 1863, only slave owners
could vote. So Socrates was sentenced to take poison, not by
a mob but by a majority vote of the slave owners.

P.S. The underlying question is how well democracy works in
comparison with, e.g. present day China. The voters twice voted
in or submitted to a phoney vote, for the scoundrel Bush. After
1948 the Chinese people had to endure for almost 4 decades another bunch of scoundrels, not elected.
