In my country, majority rule include minority representatives in a Multiparty Cabinet system of government under Constitutional law. 60% of the population are Christians. In this context, the Fiji market had the opportunity to live by Gods law. But, the Military coup of December 5th 2006 was implemented. Today, 2 years later, there is still no evidence, but positions of power have been filled by supporters. Fiji has a good Constitution but manipulation is rife.

That's a good point. If you think about it, the bottom 51% (or whatever) of any population make up a majority, who can vote to make the top 49% "spread the wealth around."

But America is not a democracy, its a democratic-republic which safeguards the minorities from abuse by the checks and balances of different offices of our government.
