Democracy of course.

haven't tried either
I'd like to give the former a go first

anarchism.

democracy is idiocy

poor, hard-working people can´t be expected to be well-informed politically.
they don´t have the time or the energy

in a state of desperation people are easily manipulated.


For poof of this look at the history of American government, with their "attempt" at democracy.



Theocracy is better as long as God has the right definition, or non-definition.

Meritocracy is better than both in principle.

As long as Capitalism is part of the deal, everything will fail.

Secular Democracy.

What chance would any presidential candidate have if they came out publically as being an atheist?

Holland's solo on Uncertain Smile is tasty keys.

Theocracy, meaning people would decide that some God rules over them?

Theocracy is bullshit. It's always people calling the shots.

A true democracy at least gives the majority of the people the chance to rule, in some form, or at least influence who rules.

If they take that chance that is.

If they do not, the people fall prey to the aristocrats, or to a plutocracy, where those with the most money and power rule, as history proves.

neither. theocracy puts the power in a fairy-tale God, yet democracy puts the power in human beings, and neither by itself is enough. I put the power in people that manifest the teachings of the New Testament into action in their daily lives, without the need to label themselves because they're doing so.

secular democracy, naturally.
