Man, I think you got so used to democracy that you wouldn't spot one
even if you fall with your nose on it. A democracy is as good as its
citizens are, it is not that "the others" have to do democracy for you,
you want it you fight for it. Supposed anarchy is always a good excuse,
but we wouldn't be about 9billion people on this planet if the anarchy
you talk about really existed.
