What we have in America, is not a democracy. It is more akin to a republic, with heavy plutocrat (corporatist) intervention.
True. If democracy was actually used as it is defined, we'd be getting somewhere.
Why is it "the only viable government after all other forms had long since failed"?? I do not remember every successful civilization being a democracy...
Also, do you realize the repercussions of true democracy?
