Democracy is a nice word
Democracy is
a nice word. It is the mantra and savior of all us like minded
advanced folk who believe in the old dictum that it is the worse kind of
political system save all others ...... whether we are democratic
liberal heroes or sympathizers with the holiness of it all.
Much
like those who would concern themselves with the birth of a child prior
to its delivery ... but not after ..... the true heartfelt democrats
cascading far and wide in the advanced circles of human endeavor are
believers in the word, the process, the fairness of it all but care
little for the making and keeping of the structures, the systems, the
belief systems that would ensure that a democratically formed order of
magnitude and grace would not vote itself to be the freely elected
enforcers of pleasant despotism, philosopher kings, oligarchies,
theocracies, final lords and masters.
Power sought is power
sought. Those who are constrained by the seminal arch of the rainbow of
democracy will seek power within and under the umbrella of such a
lovely arch. Once in place and in positions of hallowed legitimacy
there is always the path to reshape the system into a happier vehicle
for the exercising of one's own divine will.
The will to power
does not a democrat make. An imbalance of powers within a system does
not a democracy ensure. Democracies flourish when they are too tough to
steal or when those in position to exercise the fruits of their
crook-hood don't as they have an allegiance to the sloppy, rotten system
that got them there.
Don't bet the barn on the latter.
