Democracy. It is an interesting topic and one that I have very strong opinions on. I am a person who is very opinionated but I will listen to the other side of the argument. There are several varieties of democracy, some of which provide better representation and more freedom for their citizens than others. However, if any democracy is not structured so as to prohibit the government from excluding the people from the legislative process, or any branch of government from altering the separation of powers in its own favor, then a branch of the system can accumulate too much power and destroy the democracy. I believe in democracy and the only reason I am writing about it now is because people are trying to change ours. Honestly, I do not want it to change! It may be flawed in some areas but the changes being proposed now will make it even worse… and of the other types of governments out there, democracy is by far the most efficient and just. All of this is solely in my opinion of course, and I will listen to other people’s opinions as well as long as you don’t try to dis me for what I believe in. I am an open-minded person until people try to belittle me for what I believe in. That is where I draw the line and I will not listen to you any longer. So to wrap this up, tell me if you believe in democracy or if you think we should become more like the French. Meaning, have a socialistic government and pay way to much in taxes.
