Aretae: Most surprising post of the day

Thursday, September 9, 2010

Foseti links to an article saying that Democracy is natural.

Alrenous said...: I think democracy could work if every voter were an expert on governance.

In a tribal situation, the people are far more likely to have a good idea of what's going on. Plus, tribes have none of this 'one human, one vote' nonsense.; September 9, 2010 at 5:25 PM

I'm sure the article really mentioned democracy - it certainly said nothing about universal suffrage.

Like Alrenous, I think "democracy" on a tribal scale would be very different.; September 10, 2010 at 5:24 AM
