_Democracy: No Friend Of Liberty, But An Ally of Tyranny_
"If man is not fit to govern himself, how can he be fit to govern someone else?" ~ James Madison
Democracy is not a system that puts the people in power. "The people" will never be in power.
Democracy is a system that puts the best manipulators in power.
"Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard." ~ H. L. Mencken
"Democracy? I want nothing to do with a system which operates on the premise that my rights don't exist simply because I am outnumbered." ~ R. Lee Wrights
"A man is no less a slave because he is allowed to choose a new master once in a term of years." ~ Lysander Spooner
“Since outright slavery has been discredited, 'democracy' is the only remaining rationale for state compulsion that most people will accept. Democracy has proved only that the best way to gain power over people is to assure the people that they are ruling themselves. Once they believe that, they make wonderfully submissive slaves.” ~ Joseph Sobran
