  • Democracy isnt perfect.

  • Good Video

  • The minorities only have rights if the MAJORITY of people let them. Thats why democracy isn't so good. Its better then a dictatorship sure, but it ain't that better and infact in many cases have lead to dictatorships in the past. Remember, the greeks had slaves ;)

  • Democracy is horrible. We need a constitutional republic in which people can choose who represents them in a direct representation non partisan election. Government needs to be restored to a local level with the federal government in place to protect the rights of the people and the rule of law. We need individual liberty, not mob rule. In democracy a small group will always convince the mob into giving them the power, and then you will have oligarchy.

  • @d3ltadrive wouldn't it make sense if once people are elected they can be UNelected when they don't do what they promised to do before the election? It just seems so backwards that we choose our leaders based on promises they make instead of actual achievements. Obama did pretty much the opposite of what he was elected for and all we can do is choose the next bullshitter... politics is obsolete, counterproductive and pointless...

  • @z3r0Projects ". politics is obsolete, counterproductive and pointless..." -The trouble is that we have all invested too much into the idea that government should regulate all areas of our lives. Of course the notion of big brother always taking care of us is very comforting to some, but security is ALWAYS traded against freedom. I know this had little to do with your main comment, but your final conclusion is what spurred me to reply. Government is necessary, but not in EVERYTHING

  • @Blexine if ONLY big brother WAS taking care of those that can't care for themselves instead of taking care of itself at the expense of millions of lives under the pretext of 'freedom & democracy' , if ONLY they were educating all children instead of dumbing them down so they keep running on the treadmill, we would not need any ( or barely any ) laws and/or government. "But they don't want citizens capable of critical thought... They want obedient workers" ( George Carlin )

  • @z3r0Projects Yes indeed. That very thought had occurred to me long before I heard Carlin say it. You are of course right that misappropriation of funds and secret handshakes is what gives rise to these failures of government, but I think it is folly to imagine that will ever stop. As long as there's a river of money flowing through the gov. they will always be tempted to swim in it. Cut out the huge gov. budget and you cut out their ability to misdirect funds. End of story IMHO.

  • @Blexine ... government should protect our borders, safeguard our liberties and deliver our mail. thats all. now it is a corperation who's sole purpose is to squeeze as much money out of it's indentured servents as possible and dumb them down to keep the complaicent.

  • @NandRService Yup, that sounds like a fair assessment.

  • This video and its poster are clueless about what Democracy really is... They are confusing Republic for Democracy, so sad. Search Republic vs Democracy and educate yourself.

  • 'Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner....Liberty is a well armed sheep.'

    (Benjamin Franklin)

  • Comment removed

  • Democracy is......the erosion of a constitutional republic into a tyrannical oligarcy

  • Democracy allows the slaves to chose their owners.

  • democracy is ... a stepping stone to socialism

    long live the constitutional republic

  • Democracy leads to anarchy.

  • America is suppose to be a republic not a democracy

    Democracy throughout history have allays lead to monarchy rule

    It happened to the Roman Empire and its Happening to America now

  • You Have Just Helped Me In School!

  • Too bad it doesn't work.

  • @canubelieve

    Maybe your internet is so low!

  • nice job! :)
