Democracy? What happened to the "Republic for which it stands"

[Lex_Luthor]

The truth is that we are not a democracy, nor or we a republic any longer. I learned a new word today:

Ineptocracy(in-ept-o-cra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Nice. But also because it's true.

[Irving]

I'm a big fan of Kleptocracy. I learned it from Jared Diamond; who seems like he might be a pretty big liberal.
