Even the United States isn't genuinely democratic as most representative hold stock in various companies.
The best way to influence congress in the United States is to lobby, not vote.
And even in the ways that democracy works in the United States, most issues are in a deadlock position.
How long has the United States argued over abortion? the past, what, half century?
And we still go back and forth.
The United States is crumbling right now due to this deadlock with each party looking to overturn the changes that the previous leadership has overturned and so on and so forth.
Democracy is dying.
My ignorance is not as valuable as your knowledge, but this is precisely what democracy implies.
This isn't to say I advocate for Authoritarian governments either, but they do get rid of the levels of bureaucracy and levels of administration to administer changes, whereas in an authoritarian government is way more efficient to deal with changes.
I'd advocate for a benevolent authoritarian, but it doesn't mean that the successor, or the next, won't be a complete asshole, which is why authoritarian is dangerous.
However, the form of government that I would truly advocate for is a meritocratic oligarchy where the few would have absolute rule, but deserve to have that absolute rule in the sense they are benevolent, just, but wise and efficient at the same time.
Democracy is dying. I have absolutely no hope for this deadlock and polarization between the the factions of the United States, especially when most representatives are sellouts to corporations.
