[quote=@mdk] Tyranny is not a solution, no matter what the problem is (unless the problem is "Man, we're not messed up enough"). Democracy has made things immeasurably better. The current world order is as good as it's ever been, so I say we stick with that for a while. [/quote] Democracy is only good as long as your population is not ignorant and maintains their knowledge of (insert topic at hand) before voting. A similar but far inferior form of democracy, idiocracy, is very dangerous. And, on principle, I also disagree with democracy. I'm curious how you dictate world order is good, or what criteria there are for that?
