What Is Democracy

"Democracy is a form of government that substitutes 'election by the incompetent-many' for 'appointment by the corrupt-few'."
~~~ George Bernard Shaw

"Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve."
~~~ George Bernard Shaw
 
"Political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give the appearance of solidity to pure wind."
~~~ George Orwell
