Should we get rid of democracy?

[mick1960]

Oh my gosh! What sort a person are you?

The same people who haven't a clue about how to run our country with all their 'education' and 'experience'.

What a disaster they've caused.

I guess, I better bough down in front of these university graduates., these politicians, these dynasties, Oh ye masters.

When are you going to start thinking for yourself?

It was your argument to let 80 people from a lottery with no experience and no advisers to to run the country ,instead of 166 who are there.
So why not use your model to run a hospital ?
A company?
A University?
It is your idea not mine.
Or is the fact that I can think for myself that has left you running for cover?
When a simple,yes this idea of mine needs some more thinking about,because in its present form it will not work.
or
Thanks,for all your posts they gave me a lot to think about.

Do not give up though,because one day you may come up with an original thought that you can defend with logic or facts.

Alright Mick calm down, I was only winding you up.

From you posts, I assumed that you believe, our politicians have plenty of experience to run our country, they do not. I was talking to a politician the other day, who I know very well and he told me the government are manuring themselves because they haven't a clue what to do about the current mess we are in.

That makes two of us

I think they are self serving pompous jobs for the boys club and they do not have a clue and should be kicked and some put on trial for Treason by people chosen in a Lottery.

I still do not think a Lottery government would work,but that apart. it would do as good a job as what is in place now.
A group of people from every country in the world on a coach trip would do a better job,and they would have no local knowledge

It should be pointed out that the govt doesn't run the country all they do is set policy and the ones who run it is the civil and public service.

The goverment also use PR consultants, spin doctors, experts and professionals that advised them on how to run the country.

So when you think about it, people who are not elected actually decides what goes and they get well paid for it.

The politicians are a front for all this corruption and it's time we cleared out this rot.

The Govt also allocate the budget (or lack of budget) which probably has more impact than the policy. There are lots of great policies on the books awaiting funding to be implemented.
