yes, democracy works great whenever a great number of people are reduced to slavery of one sort or another type.. as would all other forms of government

this is why gold must not be allowed to be as good as money or better than money, for the fate of empires, destiny of republics, and continuity of all sorts of government cannot happen when gold is economic freedom

Helen Clark and Helengrad: <"While man is being instigated by the love of power--a passion visible in an infant, and common to us even with the inferior animals--he will seek personal superiority in preference to every matter of a general concern; or at best, he will employ himself in advancing the public good, as the means of individual distinction and elevation: he will promote the interest of the state from the selfish but most useful passion of making himself considerable in that establishment which he labors to aggrandize. Such is the true picture of man as a political agent. >

Virtuous Victorian Values are the foundations of a good community. They are not found in Argentina or Brazil. There are no doubt some lurking here and there in individuals in those countries. They are in short supply in London. In fact, the English are in short supply in London. Some people still speak it naturally, but the proportion is low.
