The type of human being who wants to be a rulemaker is literally the worst among us. We are have set up a system where the worst possible people are always in control. At least with kings there was some random chance that once every few hundred years or so you could randomly end up with a good one. With democracy ending up with good people in control isn't even possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
