Quoted from kmoore88:PINBELL said:It's like democracy, it ain't perfect, but it's better than anything else out there!!!
Not to nitpick, but a democracy allows 51% to rule over the other 49%. A Constitutional Republic is actually the best thing out there where the individual's right and liberties are (theoretically) protected by a representative yet segmented form of government.
"A constitutional republic is a state in which the head of state and other officials are representatives of the people and must govern according to existing constitutional law that limits the government's power over all of its citizens"
"No single individual or group is allowed to exercise executive, legislative and judicial powers. Instead, these powers are separated into distinct branches that serve as a check and balance on each other. In a constitutional republic, "no person or group [can] rise to absolute power."[4]"
Correct.
Democracy sucks by comparison. But is still better than dictatorship, communism, marxism, socialism, etc.
