Ideally they'd be no governments. Some people like being ruled over I guess.

 

A democratic government represents, rather than rules. They act as a buffer aginst wayward big business.

 

Representative democracies are probably best called partocracy. Direct democracy where citizens vote on policy, rather than representatives we elect through partisanism (political parties), is arguably the only true and pure form of democracy. Our parliament rules because ordinary citizens don't vote on legislation directly.

 

You could always stand with an 'open document' manifesto and a promise to let people vote on everything.

I reckon the appetite for that would be low. We vote on the manifesto that's nearest our needs. A vote on everything, every time would restrict progress and end up being far less representative.

You just need to know where to look at the right time of year. With x90 ish spotter scope you can see the moons of jupiter.

 

I've heard that musician Paul McCartney was replaced back in the 60's by a bricklayer from Birkenhead. The real Paul still sings at football with the MK-Ultras.

 

You can see them as clear as day with BBC 4 and iPlayer.

 

So ??? Does the earth have more than one Satellite/Moon? Cruithne.
