Aristotle says : “If liberty and equality, as is thought by some, are chiefly to be found in democracy, they will be best attained when all persons alike share in the government to the utmost.”

Very noble words !

Democracy is of course OF the people  !

But we have seen ‘masses’ being mobilized/brought into focus…. only during election time….and soon forgotten ….for next four/five years !

Democracy is also….FOR the people !

Now…this seems quite plausible….but what actually happens in a realpolitik …it is more for the elected ones...than the electors !

Democracy is BY the people !

Only this one is true ! ( but here again….the average percent of eligible voters who actually vote are …normally…..in most democracies….less than 50%)

Although there seems to be no other ‘suitable’ alternative to a democracy ( so far)….what is amazing is:

“ Democracy is only good in a demo….in actuality… it is no better than Aristocracy” …BB
