Many time, I just can't help myself and wonder do democracy really work? Democracy mean that the majority is ruling the country but if the majority is only razor thin, how will it work?
Once i come across a smart ass said that democracy is rule by majority with respect to the minority. That is pure bull shit. We can't even respect and agreed with people from our own camp most of the time, will you ever really care about people from the opposition?
Also, do remember that democracy is a very fragile system. Try make a guest, how many percent of the population you need to overthrow the government via peaceful demo? 50%? 40%? 30%? I would said you need far lesser than 10%. Imagine a country will 20 mil population and only 100k people demo in city centre. The pressure it created is so great that no one can ever ignore it.
So you not happy with your current government? Get the number and show them who is the boss.
We will never know the extend of the democracy system can accommodate till we pushes it to the limit. So, good luck.
