Democracy can mean many things to many people. Heck, even some dictatorial regimes prefer to call their system to be democratic while at the same time they are using the state power to suppress people and to spread lies just to create fear.
In my idea, democracy means that the government is coming from the people, for the people and by the people. The power emanates from the voters and that power should be used for the greater good of the people.
However, there are some people who prefer someone to lord over them as long as that ruler can provide them all the basic stuffs they need. They don't care if they don't have the freedom others are enjoying as long they have something to eat everyday.
As for me, I still love democracy and I hate it if someone would be curtailing my Bitcoin freedom lol.

Well, to me it seems that most of the countries which claim to be democratic are run by corporate interests nowadays. I like the idea of democracy but I'm not sure if it's being implemented anywhere right now.

It seems to me that absolute democracy doesn't exist. And it's probably good. Currently, we have seen the pernicious effects of democracy such as the withdrawal of Britain from the EU, elections Trump. What else to expect?

Democracy is an idea, the people should be able to decide what they want their country to do but so many times, the interests of the few overcome the interests of the many. That is the main problem, direct democracy is something that must be improved in every country, things as referendums are a must! Referendums must be optimized to cost less, aka. digital voting, volunteers etc. and require less signatures to be taken so the nation actually has the means to correct actions from politicians they do not support.
Elected politicians often forget that they are where they are to serve the nation and not vice versa and that's why direct democracy must be improved. Democracy is a growing system, we had it for a long time but we must improve it so the individual has more power.
And yes, I still love it, although flawed, it's still the best system we have.

The current system of democracy does not meet their requirements. I believe that the government is the sphere which requires special education and does not tolerate publicity. For these purposes, democracy can be destructive.

This is completely untrue, there was never a succesful communist country Communism fails as soon as the country runs out of other peoples money, money they stole from people who earned it, political opposition and anyone else who opposed them They nationalize (aka. steal) and as soon the money is given out and there is no new assets to steal, communism fails Capitalism overcomes communism in even the tiniest aspects Communism is a big pile of shit Read 'Animal farm' by George Orwell, I really loved the book and it plainly describes what communism is and was

You're free to agree with the goverment, free to write what the goverment tells you to write, free to clap your hands for an hour until the officials leave, free to speak only what you're allowed to say and free to steal from those who have created something on their own. If you refuse the advantages of these luxuries you are always free to go to a gulag Countries from the ex USSR and Yugoslavia still allow their citizens to worship this regime Fact is communism murdered millions and millions more then facism ever did and they still walk around with red stars on their heads and hail Stalin and Tito Communism is evil and it should be forbidden to use its symbols in any modern country

Barbarossa which is "funny", the day the first Partisan division was founded Day that the Nazis attacked USSR, why weren't they anti-facists before it tangled with their own interests? You do not appreciate democracy until you feel the wrath of dictatorship on your own skin Democracy is everything

They themselves have adopted the propaganda of Goebbels and successfully used.

Well, if you compare democracy with communism or some other political systems in the past, democracy is still better political system. It's true that democracy is not perfect but what is solution? Anarchy? I don't think so. At least democracy can learn and become better over time and people have freedom to do what they want, and social security and protection. If nobody can show me something better, I will not change my opinion about democratic political and social system.

Democracy does not perfect, but I'm sure she has great potential. Unfortunately people still do not have the ability to influence politicians. This leads to the fact that discredited the idea of democracy.

Well, if you compare democracy with communism or some other political systems in the past, democracy is still better political system. It's true that democracy is not perfect but what is solution? Anarchy? I don't think so. At least democracy can learn and become better over time and people have freedom to do what they want, and social security and protection. If nobody can show me something better, I will not change my opinion about democratic political and social system.
Democracy does not perfect, but I'm sure she has great potential. Unfortunately people still do not have the ability to influence politicians. This leads to the fact that discredited the idea of democracy. The problem with society today is that we raise our children to listen, instead of questioning Children that suck up to teachers get better grades, while those who keep distance and don't get so deep in their buttholes you lose sight of them get worse grade, just because the teacher dislikes children that oppose him Those who oppose the teachers views are the ones that will be punished, and followers will be rewarded We are being taught to follow, instead of thinking on our own, and question everything we're being told A standardized test each year should be introduced in schools, a test that will be required to pass the year instead of being subjectively graded based on the teachers mood and the liking of your charachter Besides that, only a minor part of society discusses events, but majority of it discusses people We are at the peak of human development, but we are still so stupid and stuck up on so petty things in life that it's just ridiculous.. And then we have these people voting Democracy is the best system we got, but I believe we should still improve it (a lot!) PlatoYou see, my friend, the three shepherds on the hill? As long as they can outvote me nad Socrates, and then makes decisions, I will not believe in democracy. I believe while voting, next to your candidate there should be a simple question about him, about his program etc. You must answer it in order for your vote to count, if you get it wrong, your vote will not count For starters

From Wikipedia at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy: According to political scientist Larry Diamond, democracy consists of four key elements: (a) A political system for choosing and replacing the government through free and fair elections; (b) The active participation of the people, as citizens, in politics and civic life; (c) Protection of the human rights of all citizens, and (d) A rule of law, in which the laws and procedures apply equally to all citizens. The thing that many people, including Wikipedia, do not point out is that in a democracy, it is the majority over the minority. The 51% might be happy, but the 49% probably won't be. Another thing that Wikipedia doesn't point out is that the difference in the governments of the United States, Canada, the U.K., Australia, and a few others is that the laws of the governments are only suggestions for the people to follow. These governments are democratic, but the people are directly over and above the governments. For example. In the USA, people who don't obey a governmental law must be taken to trial. (If the person is dangerously violent, or if there are corrupt cops, he may never make it to trial.) There are 4 things that must exist at the trial before a person can be convicted (The person must invoke them.): 1) a complainant or claimant (plaintiff); 2) obviously, the person accused (defendant); 3) harm, damage or injury; 4) proof that the accused did the harm, damage or injury, in the form of at least one witness, and incriminating evidence. If these 4 things are not all there at trial, and if the accused calls for them to be present, if they are not there, there is no case. It is in the Federal Rules of Court. However, if the accused or his attorney doesn't require these things through notice to the court, the court can do anything that it wants. The point is, the people who know this are above all the statutes of governments in the countries listed above, and a few others. In addition, the 12-person jury can rule any way they like. They don't have to listen to the judge. This is what makes these democracies, common law governments, to be free. A civil law democracy does not have this kind of freedom.

The problem is that the majority isn't very intelligent The minority are the ones that actually know how to lead the country However, we are terrible at differing who are the ones that know how to do this As I said in my previous posts, I believe there should be a couple of questions on the voting sheets If you get them wrong, your vote doesn't count We have people who don't know anything about people they're voting for and these are the people who decide who is going to rule millions of people for over 4 years

Unfortunately, any, even the most justified limitation of the right to vote is contrary to the laws of democracy. We are doomed to the fact that low-qualified majority would be to interfere with everything.

Unfortunately in a democracy to live well, but the state does not develop. All examples of the rapid development of countries associated with autocracy and totalitarianism. Then comes democracy and the country is slowly starting to fade.

We have followers, not leaders and this is specially visible in the politics. How to change it? Political system is not issue here but education. Compare the best education system in the Europe, Finland, and our country, Croatia, and everything will be clear. We need to start with small kids, and give them freedom in the schools, guide them to explore and question everything, not just to remember facts. Such kids will be further leaders, not followers.

Democracy to me is still the best form of government to me. There is a saying for countries that have witnessed quite a number of coups that "the worst democracy is better than the best military government" for the fact that I have a choice to make of the notion that I have a choice to make in the governance of my country is enough reason why I choose democracy. Another is the of criticism where civilians can do against government and not scared of soldiers knocking on your door the next hour is enough.

Democrasy is not the best form of government at all in today's time. Why? Well because you havea lot more people than you did when democrazy was created and people can havfe a lot more power now, also democrazy is a lot more available to corruption.

Democrasy is not the best form of government at all in today's time. Why? Well because you havea lot more people than you did when democrazy was created and people can havfe a lot more power now, also democrazy is a lot more available to corruption. General democracy might not be the best form of government. But democracy as it is in America just might be. Why? Because the American democracy has a little twist to it that allows the people to overrule the government any time they want. On top of this, we need to realize that the 12-person jury can overrule all laws. How to get an issue in front of a 12-person jury? File a claim of injury in a court of law, against government, or against a government person, and require a jury.
In addition, Federal Rules of court state that there need to be 4 things before court can even be held: 1. A complainant or claimant (plaintiff); 2. An accused (defendant); 3. REAL injury, harm or damage; 4. At least one witness, and evidence. But if Government accuses you of anything, and you don't require these 4 things, they can do anything they want.
What this means is that most government laws don't have any affect on you. Why? What about a speeding stop? The fine is, say, $120 dollars. Have you harmed anyone or damaged his property? No? They don't have a case except if you don't require them to show real injury to someone.
How about smoking some pot at home? Did you harm anyone with real harm or damage? No? They don't have a case except if you don't require them to show real injury to someone.
"But I can't afford to fight them" Yes you can. You can require damages for them filing a false claim against you to the tune of: 1. Whatever your fine would have been - now you get it from them; 2. Loss of time, a job, and other damages they did to you by filing a false complaint against you; 3. Court costs; 4. Depending on the case, more $$$.
Your attorney is an officer of the court. His first obligation is to the court and not to you. If he won't require that they bring forward an injured person, he is screwing you. Fire him, and sue him for damages.
It's in the Federal Rules of Court. If they go against their own rules, sue them. Take them to court.

Democracy is an idea, the people should be able to decide what they want their country to do but so many times, the interests of the few overcome the interests of the many. That is the main problem, direct democracy is something that must be improved in every country, things as referendums are a must! Referendums must be optimized to cost less, aka. digital voting, volunteers etc. and require less signatures to be taken so the nation actually has the means to correct actions from politicians they do not support.
Elected politicians often forget that they are where they are to serve the nation and not vice versa and that's why direct democracy must be improved. Democracy is a growing system, we had it for a long time but we must improve it so the individual has more power.
And yes, I still love it, although flawed, it's still the best system we have.
The current system of democracy does not meet their requirements. I believe that the government is the sphere which requires special education and does not tolerate publicity. For these purposes, democracy can be destructive. Whose requirements? Democracy can be destructive if implemented badly, corruption WILL happen if everything is not transparent, but this is not a problem of democracy but a problem of control. On the other hand, a country can be destroyed if carelessly implemented democratic principles. All should be the measure. I think that the crisis of democracy is associated with the lack of communication of the politicians with the people. That's exaclty what I said in my previous reply, direct democracy must increase as politicians often don't reprensent the will of the people who they're supposed to represent I believe they should also be graded by the nation and their salary judged on the average grade Most of them would probably starve, so I'd put a min. and max. salary so they can at least eat Market competition is what improves everything, race to become the best, to earn the most by giving the buyer what he wants And here we are the buyers We pay them to represent us, if they do not do so we will grade them badly and they will earn less At the new elections we will pick somebody else and he wouldn't give a damn for 4 years unless we had an option to decrease his salary I have an idea of digitalazing the whole political process so politicians remain under control of the people during their 4 year rule, not just before the elections Unfortunately, politics has become the clan business. Many politicians run the country with their families. I'm not a supporter of such dynasties, but admit that such an approach could facilitate dialogue between the authorities. Political dynasties occur everywhere and politics is a battle of families. Democracy today is useless, it is just a guise but the truth remains that the people are less free, they become more closer to poverty and hardship while the oligarchs that rules the government enslaves them and enjoys a happy and luxurious life. Sometimes a communist country with a good leader brings more freedom to the people rather than a democratic country run by enslaving and corrupt individuals. Communist ideology mixed with blood. Under the guise of beautiful words the Communists destroyed their state. Name one Communist country where the people lived well. Why we must have a democracy? Democracy gives citizens the ability to influence laws and policies through the election of representatives. Through support of certain candidates and public communication, citizens are able to influence the direction of economic, social and political values. Because of this power in the hands of everyday citizens, the theoretical political control of the country lies with the majority as opposed to a select few in power.

And the majority is what? Educated, intelligent group of responsible people? No, the majority is the mob, the easily influenced group that can be lead by money or promises that later become no more than a pile of crap. In every society there's much more illiterate morons than professors, which means that if they all cast a vote it will always be as the morons want it.

Of course, democracy is not ideal political system and many leaders can abuse it but still we don't have anything better. It's fact.

George Orwell has taught us how TPTB want to manipulate people. Of all government forms democracy sure has the best propaganda. They make you give away your power, and give you back "voting". They want to make you think that you are still in power now that you can "vote". But nothing could be further from the truth. -sf-

Democracy is good because it brightens the streets and highways. Up and down the tarmacadam, billboards of happy, smiley faces declare a zest for life wrapped in a slogan that commits said face to a duty of "BUILDING THE FUTURE", "SECURING THE FUTURE, MOVING FORWARD", or any other form of propulsion. Another one is that we can smile back at said faces and reply, Do they take us for fools?

That's the true problem of democracy in todays modern world. When democracy was invented you didn't have nearly as much people as you do now, and back then it was easier to come up to the one single mutual idea, but now... now it's just the corruption at it's finest.

Yes, the more people in official in government, the more corruptions will occur. It's better for me a corrupt dictator but has an intact leaderdhip. Hence, country will move up. Also, the lesser the official, the lesser the expenses which means mire budget in improving a country.

Democracy is a failed ideology. It encourages ethnic polarization and uncontrolled population growth. More population means more votes, and more votes mean more power. In third world countries, people indulge in uncontrolled population explosion, so that they could capture power through democracy.

Democracy can mean many things to many people. Heck, even some dictatorial regimes prefer to call their system to be democratic while at the same time they are using the state power to suppress people and to spread lies just to create fear.
In my idea, democracy means that the government is coming from the people, for the people and by the people. The power emanates from the voters and that power should be used for the greater good of the people.
However, there are some people who prefer someone to lord over them as long as that ruler can provide them all the basic stuffs they need. They don't care if they don't have the freedom others are enjoying as long they have something to eat everyday.
As for me, I still love democracy and I hate it if someone would be curtailing my Bitcoin freedom lol.
I can see your point. I love democracy too. Despite all the flaws it has, you at least won't be put in jail for using Bitcoin in a democratic country. And I agree that some people sell their freedom for the food and seeming security. It is their choice to make of course but I think it's not worth it.

Word democracy have real meaning. It comes from Greek word ''demos'' which means people. So, democracy means that people rule and can choose their political representatives. Of course, democracy is not ideal political system and many leaders can abuse it but still we don't have anything better. It's fact.
George Orwell has taught us how TPTB want to manipulate people. Of all government forms democracy sure has the best propaganda. They make you give away your power, and give you back "voting". They want to make you think that you are still in power now that you can "vote". But nothing could be further from the truth. -sf- Heck, that is so true, In most countries the "high" jobs such as city mayor are still indirectly chosen by the elites, and not by the actual people living there. Is that what you call democracy? Us civilians have literally 0 input in that process (It all depends on where you live ofcourse) (whom we want taking that Mayor seat), while i think we should have. That's the true problem of democracy in todays modern world. When democracy was invented you didn't have nearly as much people as you do now, and back then it was easier to come up to the one single mutual idea, but now... now it's just the corruption at it's finest. Yes, the more people in official in government, the more corruptions will occur. It's better for me a corrupt dictator but has an intact leaderdhip. Hence, country will move up. Also, the lesser the official, the lesser the expenses which means mire budget in improving a country. Yes, you are right partially, that we have a lot corruption in democracy, a lot fights, injustice etc. But.... can you really compare life in democracy with life of average person 500 years ago? Or 2 000 years ago? Even democracy is not perfect yet, quality of our life is much better than before. If not democracy, than, what is alternative? Please, show me? Anarchy?

Democracy means freedom. I will only fully believe in democracy if the real freedom is acheved like freedom from poverty, freedom from criminality, freedom from graft and corruption, freedom from war and other much needed freedoms. Democracy is a failed ideology. It encourages ethnic polarization and uncontrolled population growth. More population means more votes, and more votes mean more power. In third world countries, people indulge in uncontrolled population explosion, so that they could capture power through democracy. Not all third countries are experiencing a population explosion. In RUSSIA, for example no such problem. However, there is also no democracy. I don't really like democracy, but people don't come up with anything better.

I think democracy remains an integral part of the republic, democracy is a system of society and the government to control them with a range of policy and legal literature. I am grateful to live in a democracy, freedom of speech to be given the right to legal protection and are not strictly limited. If we live in north korea, let alone use bitcoin, internet and social media are restricted full, we like living at a time in the past

In Russia, there is neither population growth, nor population decline. Compare that to the shit hole called Ukraine (does not deserve to be called a third world country, should be a fourth world nation). The Ukrainian population is declining by some 200,000 per year.

You have in Russia the population growth rate of 95.5% due to migration. If you use your expression "hole" Russia is consistent with this definition. The more that the illegal annexation of the Crimea has allowed to level statistics.

Sorry to choose the President this is not enough. Democracy allows the people to recall the President if he cheated on the election. It seems to me that the absence of such a mechanism allows you to save money in the elections, but sometimes leads to more serious consequences in the form of revolution.

No, it was good back then when there we a lot, a lot of smaller numbers of people when they could unite under one idea, now it's impossible or very hard so democracy isn't that good of an option no more.

Democracy is good if it is real democracy. There are many kinds of democracy and the most famous are the two democracy as a tool for corrupt people to bribe people to vote for them in the election so they can usurp funds and enjoy the money of the people. The second one is the real democracy wherein capable leaders are running in the election for the purpose of giving a true dedicated service for the people and not for personal gains. Other kind of democracy is not so famous but is just a creation of the superpower countries so they can have control over the resources of the country.

You are describing is not democracy, but the behavior of people who are using democratic principles, want to come to power. In the first case you describe populists, and in the second case all politicians. Who of contemporary politicians does not use power to generate income? And this applies to any political system.

Democracy has a lot of bright side. It prevents those who are in authority to abuse their power and gives the majority group of people to be heard. But, the dark side is, people often over use their rights without counting their responsibilities. Democracy is good if both the government and the people work together. I still love democracy but it should be a democracy with discipline.

I agree that democracy is not perfect political system but what is alternative to democracy? Anarchism? Communism? Dictatorship? We have already tried all these systems and the results were catastrophic. Millions of people were killed in communism, social progress was stopped, every freedom was abolished... The same we can say for any other political system. So, even if democracy is not perfect, I preferred it. Alternatives are much worse.

I agree. The problem is that there are a lot of poloticians and people in power to abuse democracy and that puts it in bad light. Freedom to live a life you chise is a gift that many of our forefathers fought for. The sad part is that a few people manipulate democracy to oppress or corrupt people below them. Though i also don't see any choice aside from this.

Democracy is a good way to run the country, it gaves eveyone the right to participate in developing the country, democracy can makes the relationship between the government and citizen has a strong bond, but sometimes people tend to abuse the democracy system, because government doesn't got the total power, so sometimes democracy can cause riot

You are too optimistic in relation to democracy. In a democracy, have all the same problems as in an autocratic state, only they are more veiled. For the state, the dictatorship even more convenient. In such a state harder to live as a free people, but it's easier to maintain order.

Democracy only means: Majority rules. When a small group of powerful individuals control what everyone needs and another small group of corrupt individuals represents the people and electing (not voting on issues) is the only power of the people, then democracy is nothing but a vain word, an empty promise, a sleeping pill for the masses. Bitcoin is a disruptor, an alarm, a wakeup call, or a call to action for those that were already awake. Long live human ingenuity, we are opening the gates of Heaven. There’s going to be a war in hell.

There is no such things as democracy this is what they call "illusion of freedom." Democracy is nothing but a lie made up by our corrupted politicians for them to easily rule us and control us. That laws they've implemented is meant to benefit themselves while some leader talk about peace and elimanating poverty but the the truth they're sitting in a pile of cash taken from their people. In the end sweet words and promises of change is just a way to convince us to vote for them. The illusion of free will to chose what path we chose it nothing but a lie, our future is determined by our government even our jobs, religion, money is all controlled by them.

Well, to me it seems that most of the countries which claim to be democratic are run by corporate interests nowadays. I like the idea of democracy but I'm not sure if it's being implemented anywhere right now.
Democracy government is actually the best set of government but is always be control by evil people and " corporate interest. The evil politicians well always influence the mind of voters through financial or position interest, and by so doing work themselves into power and rule like king and lord to the voters.

Democracy is simply dictatorship by the majority. Libertarianism is freedom for all, as long as a person doesn't harm his neighbor. Libertarian 2016 Platform - https://www.lp.org/platform/.

Aristotle does not consider democracy good. He equated it with mob rule. He preferred what he called polity. When polity goes wrong it turns into a democracy. Depending on how you look at it, democracy could actually be considered mob rule. In my country, a democratic one, the majority of the people shall be followed. Vox Populi vox dei they say. That's exactly the spirit of democracy, right? However, if you take a closer look at such a democratic practice on the ground level, you will be disappointed. People are choosing leaders not on platforms, proposed policies, social vision, and the like. They choose out of patronage and out of money. Elections are too partisan. From the village level to the municipal, to the provincial, up to the national, people are like gangs trying to recruit as many as possible. The hell they care about anything else, the most important thing is that the government rein will fall to their hands.

Democracy can mean many things to many people. Heck, even some dictatorial regimes prefer to call their system to be democratic while at the same time they are using the state power to suppress people and to spread lies just to create fear.
In my idea, democracy means that the government is coming from the people, for the people and by the people. The power emanates from the voters and that power should be used for the greater good of the people.
However, there are some people who prefer someone to lord over them as long as that ruler can provide them all the basic stuffs they need. They don't care if they don't have the freedom others are enjoying as long they have something to eat everyday.
As for me, I still love democracy and I hate it if someone would be curtailing my Bitcoin freedom lol.
I don't want 51% of the people telling me what to do because I was in the 49%. Forget democracy. Let freedom reign. The only time that government takes freedom away from someone, is when that person takes freedom away from someone else. Then the jury decides who is guilty.

As democracy means rule of people ... That is of the people for the people and by the people. Democracy is a form of government in which all eligible citizens participate equally—either directly or through elected representatives. Democracy is the best form of government simply because no other form of government is known to work well. Yes I still love democracy because with this I continually enjoy my rights especially right to expression, right to informed, right to choose the person who leads you in a successful country.

We will not reach a perfect final system. Democracy will eventually evolve into something better, probably after a few setbacks along the way (Trump?). Don't get attached to it.

Democracy is a good way to run the country, it gaves eveyone the right to participate in developing the country, democracy can makes the relationship between the government and citizen has a strong bond, but sometimes people tend to abuse the democracy system, because government doesn't got the total power, so sometimes democracy can cause riot
You are too optimistic in relation to democracy. In a democracy, have all the same problems as in an autocratic state, only they are more veiled. For the state, the dictatorship even more convenient. In such a state harder to live as a free people, but it's easier to maintain order. yes,i agree with you man.. democratic will make people feel free,goverment too weak to take decision for their civilian,because they need to hear from many side,from minister around president,and i agree if dictatorship more convinent for some country,it more quick and assertive to make good law for people.

One thing i admire about democracy is that it protects human rights, it gives freedom to the people, but one thing i despise about Democracy is that it makes governing very tedious, Many Leaders would want to do so many things to help the people, but they are limited most of the times, especially they have a small majority in the senate, the opposition will do everything to hinder it though it will result in the good of all.

Welcome to America. Only it's not state power, but corporate power. The state is in the back pocket of the major corporations. there are some people who prefer someone to lord over them as long as that ruler can provide them all the basic stuffs they need. They don't care if they don't have the freedom others are enjoying as long they have something to eat everyday.
Again, welcome to America. The truth takes a back seat while comfort drives the car, and the Americans who tolerate it are the destination. Hell, some of them even give directions to make sure they get to them.

Common law Court of Record; 2. Be present in court, not represented in any way; 3. 12-person jury rules in everything; 4. A claim is more powerful than a complaint; 5. The accuser is required to take the oath and get on the stand and testify against you, but if the accuser is the Unites States or a State, it can't. Government has no case. There are more. If the people knew, there would be nothing stopping their ability to change anything through the court system. This isn't democracy rule. This is people rule. Without understanding and using all this, the democracy rules.

Democracy Is A Front For Central Bank RuleRT asked me if the Fed was going to raise interest rates. I answered that the purpose of low interest rates was to restore the solvency of the balance sheets of the "banks too big to fail" by raising debt prices. The lower the interest rate, the higher the prices of debt instruments. The Fed drives bond prices up by purchasing bonds, and the Fed raises interest rates by selling bonds, or by purchasing fewer of them than previously.
I told RT that a real increase in interest rates would undercut the Fed's policy of rescuing the balance sheets of the big banks whose balance sheets were loaded up with bad debt that desperately needed a rise in debt prices for the banks to remain solvent.
When shortly thereafter the Fed raised the overnight funds rate, it blew my credibility with RT. RT did not understand that real interest rates had not increased. Indeed, two days after the "rate increase" the nominal interest rate had not changed. It was still 18 basis points. The announced rate had gone from the old range of zero to 25 basis points to a new range of 25 basis points to 50 basis points. The former max was the current minimum.

Again, welcome to America. The truth takes a back seat while comfort drives the car, and the Americans who tolerate it are the destination. Hell, some of them even give directions to make sure they get to them. During the post-World War II reconstruction period in Europe, corporatism was favoured by Christian democrats (often under the influence of Catholic social teaching), national conservatives, and social democrats in opposition to liberal capitalism. This type of corporatism became unfashionable but revived again in the 1960s and 1970s as "neo-corporatism" in response to the new economic threat of recession-inflation. Neo-corporatism favoured economic tripartism which involved strong labour unions, employers' unions, and governments that cooperated as "social partners" to negotiate and manage a national economy. Social corporatist systems instituted in Europe after World War II include the ordoliberal system of the social market economy in Germany, the social partnership in Ireland, the polder model in the Netherlands (although arguably the polder model already was present at the end of the First World War, it was not until after WW II that a social service system gained foothold there), the concertation system in Italy, the Rhine model in Switzerland and the Benelux countries, and the Nordic model in Scandinavia. Attempts in the United States to create neo-corporatist capital-labor arrangements were unsuccessfully advocated by Gary Hart and Michael Dukakis in the 1980s. Robert Reich as U.S. Secretary of Labor during the Clinton administration promoted neo-corporatist reforms.

I've never liked democracy, it could never satisfy people because it gives them the right to speak about it and think they can have any influence on it. It could have worked back in the time when there was far less people in the country/society, but now not so much.

Yes, still love democracy. It has been proven to be the most effective system of governance thus far. Unfortunately, there will be some leaders who abuse the notion of democracy. I think the key is to have robust safeguards in the system to prevent such abuses of power.

Well, to me it seems that most of the countries which claim to be democratic are run by corporate interests nowadays. I like the idea of democracy but I'm not sure if it's being implemented anywhere right now.
The world democracy, is the one I like. But that was before, because the officials of our government for the past 30years they abused it. Ad they always said that our country was under a democracy rules but the truth is not. And right now, we are under in federalism which I saw that we are in the tract to this system now.

Democracy is a good thing. I am still thankful that democracy happened. Though I know Govenment and having a President as a ruler still means manipulation atleast we still have a freedom to voice out and let people agree or disagree with it. Thoughts are shared and we learn more from it. Like I said, it is a good thing, people should just use it more wisely. If people think less about themselves all the time, maybe it would be a better place. If I may add, when I said "less about themselves" I am not saying give your food to others and starve. I'm just saying no selfishness and I hope those who are in need don't get spoiled upon recieving and JUST recieving.

Democracy is a bad sistem. The vote of Beethoven or Schopenhauer can't have the same importance than the vote of a drunk person. People who understand about politics shoud decide what is the better for the nation if this don't happen media and secret societies will manipulate people.

I have a question for you how will you determine who a slave and have no voice, and who is not a slave and their voice matter? If you are so familiar with the story, you should know that under such a system there is always the danger of a slave rebellion.

So, what is the solution than? How you will decide who should be slave and who should be master? By definition, in democracy everybody have the same rights. So, you don't talk about democracy here. It's some kind of dictatorship. Unless you suggest something better than democracy, some better political system, I don't think you will find a lot of supporters here.

Democracy is no longer working as intended. Heck, it was even criticised in ancient Greece by philosophers like Socrates. I will ask you a question - how exactly democracy works? It is proven that majority of votes are idiots or people who are easily bribed by populistic ideas. Democracy = rule of the man who gives people candies because society won't be able to accept a doctor who will help them, but at the same time offers them a bitter pill.

We all are looking for love. And entering into a relationship with a person, experiencing some strong feelings towards him, we think that we love. If these relationships often hurt us, we get the idea that love is torture, almost a disease. Indeed, perhaps your relationship is sick. Only, most likely, the correct name is not "love", but "dependence."

Nothing better than democracy the people have not invented. Indeed, in a society where the majority of people are corrupt idiots, but it's not only the fault of them. It is the fault of each of us. People get that way because we don't pay attention to them and actually renounce them. Of course they pay us the same.

Still loving it, I mean the Democracy. It has proper checks and balances at its core, hence a country with good foundations and principles should be able to thrive in democratic political system. Well, there's Mr. Trump, who is breaking away from usual norms and precedence (Not Presidence) . We will see where the Murica goes in coming days. Usually the irony is the passage of 'Emergency Laws' often passed to protect the citizens that lead to almost autocratic systems within democracy. Can think of Turkey these days, No offense Turkey

A lot of people claim that Churchill said "Democracy is the best form of government, except for all the others".
It's mainly about what kind of democracy you prefer. Some socialist systems have systems of economic democracy, such as voting for factory managers and having other powers in the workplace.
The problem is when people equate democracy with capitalism.

Democratization on the basis of true freedom in proposing rights and opinions, but we must be more accustomed to democratization. Do not get too far in interpreting what demokerasi is. There are now many countries that adopt a democratic system in which a president, governor, regent, mayor may even be directly elected by his people. I think this is a very good system

People have been voting or electing officials that are really not suitable to the position and capable of doing what the position demands. Some of our politicians are celebrities who haven't study anything related to politics or law. Sportsman who is greedy of a position and always add God on his arguments. I mean, yes, God must not be forgotten but some of his points are really pointless and useless that all you can do is to face palm. And those who are really suitable for the position were not elected because they are not famous or they do not have lots of money to give away. I love democracy because you can do what you want and express what you want but when it comes to electing public officials that will lead the country, we really has to be more strict with it.

Democracy is terrible idea in todays time, because one can get so much more power today then he could back then and a good number of politicians today are corrupt.
It's not system's fault, human always turn good things into harm-negative ones.

But for comatose patients who have been rendered hypothermic, everything changes. At seven months pregnant, Sandra Notman (right) had been told her baby girl Rachel (left) was so sick she'd be stillborn, or die shortly after birth Understandably, she didn't want the pregnancy to go to full term, so asked if she could be induced two months early. Her consultant agreed. Sandra's husband Andrew was by her side, and a priest waited to carry out a bedside baptism — naming the child Rachel. Sandra and Andrew had also booked a funeral, ordered a tiny coffin and chosen a pretty dress in which to bury their daughter. Yet tiny Rachel, weighing little over 2lb, was unexpectedly born alive, and was rushed into special care. Her survival — against the odds and the predictions of well-intentioned doctors — is a 'sober warning bell', as one expert put it, reminding medics to consider carefully their advice in such cases. Sandra, a former secretary, became pregnant with Rachel in 1991. She was 31, and Andrew, a company treasurer, was 30. See also YOU GOT TO WATCH SOME DOCTORS..

TO THE LAW.. Do you remember this case?.. 28 Nov 2016 - Police officer and Gulf War veteran was left in a coma after a crash in 2015. ... Court will be asked this week to turn off life support for Wirral dad Paul Briggs ... Family handout of Gulf War veteran Paul Briggs, 43, with his wife Lindsey ... for Lindsey and Paul's family and Lindsey just wants what is best for him. Now the doctors was saying he could get better but his wife was saying he will be a cabbage and he always said he would rather die.. Now she went to COURT and won the RIGHT to let him DIE even though the doctors wanted him to live.. NOW about the law WHO IS RIGHT.. You see the law doing 2 DIFFERENT THINGS but the same CHOICE.. Like banning smoking BUT letting 1 person do it even though the LAW is no smoking for everyone.. One rule for one and one rule for another.. SO YOU THE LAW FUCKED UP.. You let the policeman wife DECIDE over a doctor BUT not charlies parents .. SO WHAT IS THE LAW.. When ever it suits you ....

Democracy is no longer working as intended. Heck, it was even criticised in ancient Greece by philosophers like Socrates. I will ask you a question - how exactly democracy works? It is proven that majority of votes are idiots or people who are easily bribed by populistic ideas. Democracy = rule of the man who gives people candies because society won't be able to accept a doctor who will help them, but at the same time offers them a bitter pill.
Here in my country, a lot of idiots voting politician that are celebrity on the past or have a good looking, having a good sex appeal. So yes, democracy is not for idiots. Here in my country too. People have been voting or electing officials that are really not suitable to the position and capable of doing what the position demands. Some of our politicians are celebrities who haven't study anything related to politics or law. Sportsman who is greedy of a position and always add God on his arguments. I mean, yes, God must not be forgotten but some of his points are really pointless and useless that all you can do is to face palm. And those who are really suitable for the position were not elected because they are not famous or they do not have lots of money to give away. I love democracy because you can do what you want and express what you want but when it comes to electing public officials that will lead the country, we really has to be more strict with it. Thats why i always say that democracy is always overrated, we are always given two people to choose from and truthfully none of them is really good enough to do anything positive for the country. Even with free speech, there is always something that you cant really say. Is it half free speech or free speech.

To some extent democracy would have been the best only if the politicians will do the right thing at the right time. Politicians has now become multimillionaire just for a position of four years without any question on how they got the money. They makes laws that favor they them self and forgot about the people that vote them into power. What a wicked generation.

Democracy can mean many things to many people. Heck, even some dictatorial regimes prefer to call their system to be democratic while at the same time they are using the state power to suppress people and to spread lies just to create fear.
In my idea, democracy means that the government is coming from the people, for the people and by the people. The power emanates from the voters and that power should be used for the greater good of the people.
However, there are some people who prefer someone to lord over them as long as that ruler can provide them all the basic stuffs they need. They don't care if they don't have the freedom others are enjoying as long they have something to eat everyday.
As for me, I still love democracy and I hate it if someone would be curtailing my Bitcoin freedom lol.
For me I'm not favor in democracy here in my country. Because its being abuse for so many years actually its been a decades that our citizens was deceived by the officials of the government and president of course. but now our present President was a great leader and more focus in federalism.

Yes you're correct democracy will allow people to enjoy their rights. But sometimes people abused their rights because they don't limit their selves in expressing due to their expression they hurt others feelings. We should always know our limitations even we are in a democratic country.

The thing is that when bad people take on the instrument of democracy, then the country begins to be created, the devil knows that there can be no talk of real democracy. Even the mass media are beginning to engage in nonsense, and not to use freedom of speech for the benefit of their people.

A regimen can be dictatorial and still being democratic, a democracy is just the way the political class is chosen, a democracy is not a form of government, I think you are thinking about a republic.

Me it seems to that democracy, in a traditional concept, already not that was before. Many people, covered by democracy, create bad businesses in the whole world. And it goes down to them from hands. Very it is sorry that it is impossible already to correct it.

I think its just a game created by man to believe that he has the power under a controlling system. and there is no such thing as democracy, just a couple of laws that are made by the government or the society that allows the person to say some of his opinions without having a fear.

“The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.”
~ Winston Churchill
“Democracy is the worst form of government except for all those others that have been tried.”
~ Winston Churchill If you dont know much about democracy look Nort Korea DNRK,an example of the abuse of a word of democracy an some other government do same thing. Word of democracy which means that the authority belongs to the people,has long since lost significance.

The people themselves are to blame. We've learned that you have to take part in the elections and then from us nothing depends. We have forgotten how to demand politicians keep their promises. Bitcoin gave us a mechanism for economic pressure on politicians, but we here use it incorrectly. We are transforming it into a pyramid.

I think you have a valid point here dude. I think pretty much all it does is to give the people a false notion that they're free by allowing them to speak their minds. But i reality, we're all being manipulated by people who are in power by these laws and constitutions that they themsleves aren't even following.

I also love democracy but democracy is for disciplined people and country only. Democracy is having freedom.If we have freedom, we can do all we want and no one will control us. Due to that, some people abuse this freedom. They do everything they want including bad things and they were unstoppable. Democracy i think is not always a good thing. Sometimes it is better that someone lead but this leader must also know his / her limitation for he/ she must not use the position just for his / her own sake.

You are totally right. The goverments are selfish. They use democracy for their own benefits and they don't think communities that don't think like them. These communities are a kind of enemy. Then we don't have to call it not democracy we have to say that it is a start of dictatorship. I don't trust democracy. It seems like democracy gives people freedom but I believe that it is a big lie of 20th century.

maybe democracy is everyone's hope, but on its application many are not as expected, democracy instead belongs to a person or group only, not belonging to all the people. democracy which also means freedom of choice and freedom of expression of each individual is in fact even constrained by certain rules and controlled by the governing system of government.

Yes. Here in my country, we still enjoy the freedom and democracy that our government offers us. We have the freedom to choose though there are people/politicians who wants to impose their own rules to the people by shoving it down it down to our throats. Despite of that, we are still happy knowing that the current government is doing its best to protect us and our rights. And as citizens, we have to understand that all freedom also has limit and shouldn't be abused.

In my idea, democracy means that the government is coming from the people, for the people and by the people. The power emanates from the voters and that power should be used for the greater good of the people.
However, there are some people who prefer someone to lord over them as long as that ruler can provide them all the basic stuffs they need. They don't care if they don't have the freedom others are enjoying as long they have something to eat everyday.
As for me, I still love democracy and I hate it if someone would be curtailing my Bitcoin freedom lol.
Democracy, in terms of politics, belongs to the people. Quyen is the owner of the people in all aspects of social life. With bitcoin, every person has a chance to participate in bitcoin and everyone has the benefit of bitcoin. With this market economy we have to be active.

I don't like democracy, some people are hiding on this system for personal motive which is harmful for many and most specially it creates confusion to people. Democracy is also like a rocking chair which can create a movement but can't go to somewhere.

Yes, some people abuse the power of democracy. There are even times that a country becomes misdirected and there is no more progress. I know democracy is supposed to be good. However, it can cause a country to fall if abused.

Seems a lot have quite a confusing concept of democracy.
While it seems that Greece founded the idea of a democratic society, many other nations have already been practicing it in their own tradition. Such as the vikings and their system of earldom.
today, there are over dozens of democratic system each having their unique blend to fuse with their own set of culture. But the essence of democracy is to allow the people to think and act like freemen, thus, the system must always include the right to speech and the right for the people to choose who will represent their overall identity.

democracy is a system of government in which the citizens exercise power directly or elect representatives among themselves to form a governing body,such as perliament.it is a systemo of processing conflict in which outcomes depend on what participants do,but no single force controls what occurs and it outcomes.

Democracy is an idea, the people should be able to decide what they want their country to do but so many times, the interests of the few overcome the interests of the many. That is the main problem, direct democracy is something that must be improved in every country, things as referendums are a must! Referendums must be optimized to cost less, aka. digital voting, volunteers etc. and require less signatures to be taken so the nation actually has the means to correct actions from politicians they do not support.
Elected politicians often forget that they are where they are to serve the nation and not vice versa and that's why direct democracy must be improved. Democracy is a growing system, we had it for a long time but we must improve it so the individual has more power.
And yes, I still love it, although flawed, it's still the best system we have.
The current system of democracy does not meet their requirements. I believe that the government is the sphere which requires special education and does not tolerate publicity. For these purposes, democracy can be destructive. Whose requirements? Democracy can be destructive if implemented badly, corruption WILL happen if everything is not transparent, but this is not a problem of democracy but a problem of control. most of those who eventually acquire a tiny bit of power can become a tyrant on their own, will even buy women as much as they can and put them all together in one house. you can imagine how much a prime minster could do. but would rather prefer one martial leader than having a lot in a democratic government which you won't have any idea whether you are talking to who could be in power too.

Communism is evil and it should be forbidden to use its symbols in any modern country
True this. I saw a black man walking around with a Che guevara shit lol. The bulk of the people idolizing them don't even know what these people stood for. It's an evil, deadly ideology. Che Guevara is one of the Communist idols. I think the more hands in the blood, the more they worship this leader. I am sure that Hitler would be their hero if the Soviet Union did not fight with Germany and began to each other to fight. After all, until 1941 they were friends, and together they divided Europe. yes because if you fight someone you love they see to you a bad person if the person are not fight for you, they are not believe so that the love is like a democracy and to the point of the person.

In spite of it's limitations, i still think that democracy is what the world really needs with the exception of the Arab nations, they need a dictator with a firm hand to rule over them because they are very stubborn people and they tend to abuse what they call democracy. Take a look at Turkey, Erdogan is now a dictator and he did it legally.

Does it in any other? In a socialist or communist world there's no place for it either. What about dictatorship? I guess it's not there as well. I like democracy but a clean democracy, unfortunately in this world hard to find a country with a pure democratic government.
Because it's an unsustainable system as long as there's money involved. People will always sell their support for material things and there will always be those who are rich and are willing to buy it. Do you really think Trump came to power because he was an exceptional politician and leader? He came to power because he had money, just like the Bushes and Clintons before him.

the real meaning of democracy is the people governs themselves by their representatives in the parliament, and founding some organisms to rule in the name of the majority and keep respecting the minorities by including the freedom of speech and give everyone his personal freedom and privacy, but only where the law is above everybody. a government who doesn't respect the choice of their people is just a dictatorship forcing people to live under the fear of being silenced forever.. and uses some propaganda to keep the image clear as if they are a democratic country. democracy is almost a horrible lie now days.

Well, to me it seems that most of the countries which claim to be democratic are run by corporate interests nowadays. I like the idea of democracy but I'm not sure if it's being implemented anywhere right now.
I agree with you. Most of us like democracy because it works for the upliftment of the people but it is sad that now-a-days politicians has completely changed its meaning. They are more interested in making their living luxurious , defaming other religions and implementing baseless policies.

It is true that democracy has been abused by people for a lot of time, particularly when they don't know the boundary between rights and being too pushy. Still, we have to appreciate democracy by means of people who are productive because of it and not the people who are pain in a country because of it. I still love democracy.

Because of people being too abusive about their rights, there are times that I don't like the democracy we are having. The problem is some people just don't know the boundary of of their rights and tend to do more that results to bad effects on society and the bitcoin and cryptocurrency community as well. This is why there should be discipline.

I lived in communist regime, also had experience of war and now I live in democracy. Yes, I agree that democracy is not perfect but can you show me any better political system today in the world? Socialism? Communism? Are you crazy? There is no real freedom in such societies. If we want to live in the better world we have to change our society. If we want to change society we have to change our community. If we want to change our community, we have to start from our families and ourselves. It'a simple, really. I don't love democracy but I love potential of democratic society.

Democracy is freedom and it is the system of government that we have right now that is better than any else. We can select our own president unlike those other countries that the power is just passed on their relatives that are all corrupt and unfair.

Democracy spirit abuse by those few citizens who cry for freedom. They don't know what freedom they need to live by. Freedom to make corruptions, to get high on drugs & many addicted form illegal vices, to murder innocent people, free to do their family dynasty imperial politics, & to have more right for themselves. This world is to much uncertain, the day's is evil so therefore we need a formed of government that have a higher moral ascendancy in true & righteous leadership with a moral standard of authoritative Word of God. As President Duterte said "Change is coming!" I think for now we need most for a Trans-formative Government.

Democracy is always in people sides not in government side. Without kidding, for me democracy is better than other way of rulership. But this could not be better if the government is the first problem. The freedom of people choice, the freedom of people to act, speak, and whatever is the first priority of democracy.

I believe democracy is good and fair kind of form of government. This is what the world kind of government system people are first choice. But the problem if many are abusing this system. And yes people are always abusing it. Democracy is already not a democracy but just a tool for accomplishing any personal interest using the legal term. So for me now democracy should be handle properly if the government fail to do this then nothing Cam be change.

Although Democracy seems the best form of government. Given the values it preaches to achieve. Which include bit not limited to freedom from all forms of discrimination, an Egalitarian society, Economic freedom among others. However, and contra distinctly Democracy is laden with internal and intrinsic Fallouts. E.g Authoritarian tendencies, the rule of the few Elite or (mobocracy). Its my educated opinion that Democracy is the end in and or itself but a means to an end.

It is not perfect, but no one has invented a better system for now.
Democracy is a very good idea because all of us can freely express ourselves but, people abused the freedom to do so. Most of the people use their freedom right to do nonsense and even foolishness. We people must know our limitations in a such field.

Frankly, there are times when I think democracy is being abused by the people. For them, democracy means freedom, free to do anything that they wish and there are times it includes illegal things. But, if we carefully evaluate how we define democracy, it simply means that the rule over the country falls on the hand of it’s people, but not the power to do anything that they please.

I think democracy actually works if the constituents or the people are informed and educated. If not they will just be sheeo herded bu their leaders and not the other way around. A democracy is a form of government that actually hinges itself in the descision if the people. If the people themselves became complacent, uncaring and basically selfish then democracy will fail. Like having a dictatorship with an ineffective ruler is actually as bad as having a democracy with idiots as your constituents.

The true democratic principle, that the people shall not be made to do what it does not like, is taken to mean that it shall never be required to tolerate what it does not like.

Democracy has been defined as ‘the Government of the people, by the people, and for the people’. It is the only form of Government in which the will of the people is reflected in the administration. Now being in a democratic government you will see how the people Use the democracy on their own benefit. The freedom of speech is one of the many characteristic of a democratic country. Mainstream media uses freedom of speech even a regular citizen saying bad things about the government or people. They will just say that I have the freedom to say what I want to say because we have freedom of speech.
I love Democracy because it really help our country, but with the abuse of using democracy as a scape goat to a bad behavior is not acceptable. Maybe I can say it’s really depends on how you think what is democracy means to you.

Democracy in itself is supposed to be a beautiful thing. It is supposed to be a concept where we select those in power to rule us according to our wishes in the interest of all. Sadly, that is not so anymore as the "servants" have become the dictate leaders, turning themselves into judge, jury and executioner. But, when we look past these things, we realize that democracy, or the idea of it is something to be loved.

I don't think so. I am living in India, which is regarded as the largest democracy in the world (in terms of population). The problem here is that the major voting blocs have successfully managed to oppress the voices of the smaller blocks.

I like democracy for it is giving anyone to live free and equality which is the very thing that everybody loves to live. This is why many people from different countries under by cruel leadership which is keeping the freedom away from them are protesting for democracy. So freedom is what the people's need and the definition of democracy, the only bad for democracy is when it is abuse by others but overall I like it.

Democracy like any other form of government is as awesome as it's source of power. If the source of power is corrupt, ineffective or ruthless then that form of government wouldn't work. Say for example, a dictatorship is run by s person puts its people first and really listen to their plea and helps out their government. That dictatorship would be alot better than a democracy with its constituents as sheep who have no independent thought and would rather be lead than to care.

Democracy can mean many things to many people. Heck, even some dictatorial regimes prefer to call their system to be democratic while at the same time they are using the state power to suppress people and to spread lies just to create fear.
In my idea, democracy means that the government is coming from the people, for the people and by the people. The power emanates from the voters and that power should be used for the greater good of the people.
However, there are some people who prefer someone to lord over them as long as that ruler can provide them all the basic stuffs they need. They don't care if they don't have the freedom others are enjoying as long they have something to eat everyday.
As for me, I still love democracy and I hate it if someone would be curtailing my Bitcoin freedom lol.

Democracy is good with its concept allowing citizens to have a say in the decision making process but the issue is that do we have a country running a total democracy? Nowadays, the so called democratic nations seem to run under an authoritative system in disguise. Much of the decision is made by the governments without the much involvement of the people.

As our country being a democratic country, I must say that it can be the best government system. Democracy is when people have the power in the system. People have the freedom to say anything against government. They are the one who can put someone in the position and can also removed them from the position. This gave a freedom to express what people thinks. It is sometimes not in good order but I can say that it is organized at most times. Hence, I can say that I would still love democracy even though it is flawed sometimes.

I love democracy, but right now I do not think is fully implemented in every country, it seems to me that countries are run by big corporations. Politicians follow the agenda of the corporations paying less attention to the problem of the people. That is the case for every country in the world that is why corruption is the main problem in society.
