Re: Given the realities of politics, it is also possible for a democratic government to take actions that don't even have the support of a majority of the voters (the voters might not even know what these actions are). Democracy is no panacea. Do you understand better now? I suppose I do... I do understand that yours is actually an Orwellian notion of "democracy". You've turned "democracy" into a meaningless shell-word --Fill the shell with whatever you wish... Perhaps I should introduce you to my last coinage: psephocracy. Message 21246732
