The Abortion of Democracy by Mortimer Rush (English) Paperback Book

Description: The Abortion of Democracy by Mortimer Rush Only allow ourselves to praise and honor make-believe, and the next thing will be to find it creeping into the very business of state.-Solon What is Democracy actually? Can you describe it? I would bet large sums of money that you cant... You might ask, "But how can this be? We live in a Democracy dont we? Are we not educated?" Defining Democracy seems like such a simple thing to do yet the evidence proves otherwise. We are here to discuss this paradox and to journey forward we are forced to acknowledge one simple and quite startling fact: THE FORM OF GOVERNMENT WE IDENTIFY AS DEMOCRACY TODAY IS NOT, I REPEAT, IS NOT ACTUALLY DEMOCRACY! Question: Why are juries selected randomly by lottery? Why dont we elect jury members if election is such a vastly superior method of obtaining the best individuals to weigh crucial decisions? The hard truth of the matter is that, to the corrupt, true democracy is just bad for business. In other words, the Abortion of Democracydid not happen by chance.
