I understand that most people support democracy, but there are people who are more educated and experienced. shouldnt they make the decisions for a country?
the flaw lies the election system where average voters, with average intelligence, select a leader. this leader in theory reflects the ideology of the average citizen. However, there lies the problem. Average. It is mediocracy rather than success that suit the average citizen.
So here's the question...how much political decision making power should the average individual have?
I personally think a responsible (note, RESPONSIBLE) dictator/executive that is accountable to an elected council and supreme court would probably eliminate many of the problems of democracy (lots of red tape, the process to pass a bill, minority governments, etc)
