i know, i know...many americans have been mislead by big money and the founding fathers (who were also big money...hmmm) and dont like democracy and like something called a "republic" whatever that means.

Best form of government would be an omniscient benevolent dictator. I’d say republics are a good compromise to that unattainable goal. You can’t fall into utopian ideologies like communism or even laissez-faire capitalism.i know, i know...many americans have been mislead by big money and the founding fathers (who were also big money...hmmm) and dont like democracy and like something called a "republic" whatever that means.
Our representatives are garbage. It really comes down to how much money you are putting into their war coffers, whether or not your side will be heard. It’s no longer about for the good of the nation or people, it’s basically a combination of mob rule and patronage.Democracy is majority rules, it does not involve "compromise". As such, the US really is not a democracy. Republic is where people elect representatives who are supposed to look out for the interests of their constituents, while not being forced to obey the will of the majority. Just because there are a lot of wrong people, doesn't make them any less wrong. Which is why a republic is generally a superior governing model, especially with a system of checks and balances. No system is perfect, though...
to be honest, guys i listen to dont talk alot about the problems of democracy like what if only 50% of people agree. but they are very clear on democracy being the goal especially economic democracy.Democracy is majority rules, it does not involve "compromise".

mob rule by a very small mob?Our representatives are garbage. It really comes down to how much money you are putting into their war coffers, whether or not your side will be heard. It’s no longer about for the good of the nation or people, it’s basically a combination of mob rule and patronage.
yea but the thing is they dont want democracy and thats why american democracy is what it is and you dont vote on your phone. we should be voting all the time but they dont want that.Best form of government would be an omniscient benevolent dictator. I’d say republics are a good compromise to that unattainable goal. You can’t fall into utopian ideologies like communism or even laissez-faire capitalism.
At this point I wish they had voter tests and let us replace congress with an app on our phone.
