Now you see I may disagree with you there - somewhat …
There is an old adage -
"If it ain’t broke - don’t fix it …!
As to “Governments” and Politicians" - when the only purpose of a politician is to do what his/her leader says and vote “for the Party line” - wtf do we need to pay them huge salaries? - Any Politician here in the UK who tries to excercise any logical thought and “rocks the boat” - he/she is instantly punished by the leader - taking away “the whip” - ie she/he is suspended from the Party.
There is something fundamentally wrong with the “Party system” of “democracy” and it stems from the “party system” and specifically the SELECTION committees who choose teh candidates - Not on Competence but now in the uk it seems to be “Arethey going to behave themselves”? “Are they the right Sex”? “Are they the right Colour”? “Are they the right Religion?”
In fact “Democracy” itself is a very BAD form of Government - As Churchill said
“I used to be a great believer in Democracy - Until I Actually met an AVERAGE VOTER !”
Still worse - there does not seem to be ANY democracy which has lasted more than about 300 years - It seems to take teh average voter aroung that amount of time to realise that they can just vote for “Free stuff for themselves” - and the “Governments” thus elected - to destroy the competent producers by over-taxation to pay the parasite voters thus bribed and to drive the Country into the ground by Inflation of debt when the over taxed can no longer cope !
This happened in Ancient Rome where it was eventually made punishable by death for a farmer to walk away from his farm - or even to sell himself into slavery! - All to porovide teh “Useless eaters” with a stable supply of "Bread and Circusses.
We can see the process pretty well advanced in USA and UK already.
Pour yourself a beer, sit back and concentrate on listening to this ;
