Considering that the people currently in charge, who are wrecking the country, are about as anti-democratic as you can get, I think we have convincing evidence that it's correct.

I often times take exception to decisions made by our current leaders, but I'm even more concerned about the general population. An alarmingly large group of people seem to hold the naive belief that one person, or group of persons -- the president, or congress -- can "fix everything," if we just get the right people in office. The idea is that the rest of us can get back to living our self-absorbed lives without the dark cloud of scary news on the tube every night. That'll never work.

Well, no, nor should it. "Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom" and all that.
