There are many reasons why the cult of "democracy" is an insane
farce. One is that it is used by tyrants to create the illusion
that the people WANT the tyranny which is imposed upon them. The
old rhetoric that in a democracy, the people are the government,
and thus are ruling themselves, is as popularly accepted as it is
insane. What kind of a self-destructive schizo would even WANT to
forcibly boss himself around, and how delusional is it to think
that when Congress bosses you around, YOU are really in charge?
