[quote][b]Gothi[c][/b] wrote: It's in fact very easy to understand... A government's business is to govern, to control. They will do all they can to keep that control. Enemy #1 = the people it governs, since they are the ones that can take the government's power away. There has never been a true democratic government, and the reason is very simple. When you really look at it, the two words contradict. To govern = to rule (over the citizens, subjects, whatever) Democracy = the people in control (- from greek, demos (the people) kratie [power, to rule]) 'the (common) people in control' and Government just doesn't mix. Things are not that much different from the dark ages or any time before in history, in the sense that there's an elite, and there's the common masses. We humans like to be all smug and pretend to be civilized, but I think we have a long way to go yet. It's plain simple human nature at work. Power corrupts. There was (some) fail-safe's in place, in for example the US constitution, when it was initially created, because the people (and the 'founding fathers') were aware of that. - What they didn't predict is that these type of fail-safe's age, and get obsoleted by time as politicians find back-doors and invent new laws to suit their power hungry needs. The situation gets a lot worse when the bulk of the masses has been brainwashed by television into letting them get away with anything, and this is something that is happening in many countries all over the world now.[/quote]
