Why Democracy is Fucked

To illustrate how democracy works:

* a lazy dole-bludger who doesn't work
* a single mommy who doesn't work
* the generally poor who live hand-to-mouth
* a ditch digger
* a schoolteacher
* a lawyer
* and a doctor

All have exactly the same say as each other in the way that this country works.

Unfortunately there are a fuckload more dole bludgers, single mommies, and general poor types than there are doctors. You can bet for shit-sure that they will be voting to give themselves more money.

Which is why half my income goes in taxes.

    Alexis de Tocqueville called all of this 180 years ago. Democracy, the dangers of immigration, societies stacked on top of each other, all of it. Quite the prophet he turned out to be.

    "might have been daily mail that had an article 6months to a year ago outlining the significant problems facing the NHS as male doctors retired and it took at least 2 female doctors to replace them because they were only working a half load at best."
