Noam Chomsky - America is not a Democracy

do the people in the countries get a say or view about something? NO.

I had always thought the US as either a Communist or Fascist regime, depending on who is the president.

Many more scientists... especially those in economics should follow Chomsky's path... the kind of prevailing literate illiteracy is unbearable.

Surprisingly, population of all liberal capitalist democracies are 'lazy'. It is even more surprising that the people who listen to Chomsky do not get the explanation -- why?

The why is simple... people simply don't know... that is why what the human community needs above anything is enlightenment... as a pricess, not some mental state or spriitual period of some European past... it is hard work!

The average intelligence is a 100 IQ. The median IQ for a leader in the United States is approximately 140. Forty points is a dramatic difference in range.
The idea that a popular opinion makes it true is a fallacy. Government powers should belong to the select few intellectuals. Bureaucracy shares government powers with the commoners, which in historic terms have been a failure. Big government is not a new idea, it contributed to the fall of Rome.

This is no secret,, we have an Oligarchic Democracy to, so does Russia. At least the USA has also the democratic part, we just have an Oligarchy !! in our country, the rich elite have some meeting once every year, they choose among each other who wants to go for President, prime minister , etc.. The lucky one with most public votes gets the first price, but since their all rich , the other ones will get some minor function as wel. It works fine over here, no problem !!!

To shed some light on another systematic solution look up The Venus Project and Jacque Fresco

but communism and fascism and capitalism is not the only systems that can work..

theres alot of social engineers who has really good ideas on distrubuting resources and to promote good science..

Thats tru, Democracy may give us all choice but it also means that when idiots or the wrong people get into government then it is our fault for electing them

At least in China people are not responsible for putting the wrong people in government
