But if managers and supervisors are elected in still makes them "politicians" even if they operate on a lower level than a president.

I don't know how you define democracy but I personally do not believe in it, because it represents decisions made by a majority over a minority, that's the fundamental problem with it. Just because something is popular, doesn't make it right. It doesn't matter if something is "right" or "wrong" under democracy; the sole requirement is that something has a majority support. It's just mob rule and that's what is prevalent in the West today..and you can see injustice everywhere because of it. I am more in favour of a constitution whereby citizen's inalienable civil rights are inviolably protected. Of course, just any constitution per se for its own sake could be just as much a disaster as democracy if it was drafted up by a bunch of fascists who hold to today's status quo mentality. A constitution would only be of use if it was of a paragon of libertarian values.




Democracy is the government of the fools, for the fools and by the fools.
