I don't think democracy is the best system to have in all cases. A classic example of this is Philippine democracy. It is worse than elementary school class elections. Anyone who starred in a movie is capable of winning the presidency. Already two popularly elected presidents have been ousted from power (it was almost three after last year).
The Philippines could use a good does of dictatorship. It's weird saying this, but a leader like Marcos (sans corruption) would probably do the country a whole lot of good. Now, with Russia moving closer and closer to becoming a dictatorship, should we let Putin take control, or intervene somehow? |

Well we did the first time, so I guess we could always do it again. Yes, Democracy has its "flaws". Communism, Dictatorships, and Socialism looks good on paper, and in ideas. When it comes down to it, they are really not a stable foundation for forming, and ultimately running a government/country. |
