| PDF said: Are Democracy and economic equality fundamentally incompatible? I think they are incompatible. Democracy will generally lead to economic inequality. Unless society as a whole agrees to trade individual freedoms and economic benefits for equality. It may be my US background but I find it hard to believe society will ever move to a stance of equality over individual freedom. I also think people don't want to live in a world of economic equality. If everyone is rich then no one is really rich. Democracy will generally create economic inequality. |
Democracy or any political system is not the problem. Empathy (lack of), materialistic desire and the central bank is the problem.
Once we realize we are the same entity something like democracy actually becomes obsolete, then we can head for the stars instead of staring at our iphone screens.
