@sparcenigma07 At this point, it'd be nice to have either. We have fascism and a public that is placated by a superficial display of democracy, propagated by the media and reinforced by the act of casting your ballot into the void once in a while. Until recently, the dumbed-down public was too easily distracted by shiny objects, sitcoms, and fear, to notice.
Thank goodness that greed has finally become king. Now that the peasants are having trouble putting food on the table they'll wake up.

Democracy is dangerous--being the majority rules.This country was supposedly formed 2 B a Constitutional Republic. It was intended 2 support individual liberties, the rights of personal freedoms & the pursuit of happiness. There is a huge difference between the 2. Today we hear 2 many people use the word democracy without even understanding what it means---it is equal 2 a lynch mob mentality.
Peace & thanks 4 posting this great info. from a truly inspirational individual : )

He was an old school liberal... before it became its opposite. Now we would call him a libertarian, which is also the opposite of what it used to mean. How confusing.
