Democracy, true democracy, can be equated to chaos. In a true democracy, everyone has an equal voice. What we call the republican form of democracy allows the voters to vote for someone to represent you. So we go from chaos to corruption. What we need is someone with the mind and morality of a Mr. Spock (Star Trek) to govern.

The way the system works is mindless. You work until you drop, but do not worry, there is someone standing in line ready to replace you. By the time Friday arrives, you are so stressed out, you go buy that new 70” TV, and max out your credit card. You then apply and receive another credit card, so next Friday you can express your frustration at the system by making another major purchase.

By this time you are so far in debt you are ready for a heart attack or cerebral hemorrhage. Welcome to the system! :)
