Much of the West has settled on democracy as the final solution. And so far as anyone can tell, it is doing its job.
It pacifies the mob and makes everyone complicit in the process of globalism. Globalists only need to take sufficient wealth from the system to bribe a sufficient number of parasites to support them. Make a high percentage of the population parasites dependent on the state and the state can push the nation in any direction it chooses.
Democracy is the perfect vehicle for depriving people of their rights. Remember, any right given can as easily be taken. And without rights to the wealth you create you have no rights at all. Without property you are a slave. Democracy is the prefect vehicle for systematically depriving you of property and then of rights and finally, as you become superfluous, of life.
