--- Quote from: Master Matthew² on January 25, 2017, 06:12:35 PM ---I didn't realise that everyone prayed to allah. Well, to be perfectly honest, representative democracy, imo, isn't perfect, and can be proven so since the average voter doesn't usually know much outside of the main elections, but at the same time nothing better has come to take its place ( and no, Communism, Fascism, and loving Dictatorships don't work. Look at the failing North Korea if you want proof. ) But Letting the big cities full of, clearly uneducated people, run the country, because 'muh pure democracy' is handicapped. we need a representive democracy so EVERYONE gets a say, and while some states still get more of a say than others, we aren't really handing the power over to a mob rule, or a state equality of voting rule either. So its a mix, but if you don't like that, you could always try making your own country. --- End quote --- yeah but big cities in small states still get more votes per capita than big cities in large states. if you want some sort of agrarian oligarchy it doesn't work. you like the electoral college because the only presidents in recent memory who won with it were conservative |
