Democracy can mean many things to many people. Heck, even some dictatorial regimes prefer to call their system to be democratic while at the same time they are using the state power to suppress people and to spread lies just to create fear.
In my idea, democracy means that the government is coming from the people, for the people and by the people. The power emanates from the voters and that power should be used for the greater good of the people.
However, there are some people who prefer someone to lord over them as long as that ruler can provide them all the basic stuffs they need. They don't care if they don't have the freedom others are enjoying as long they have something to eat everyday.
As for me, I still love democracy and I hate it if someone would be curtailing my Bitcoin freedom lol.
maybe democracy is everyone's hope, but on its application many are not as expected, democracy instead belongs to a person or group only, not belonging to all the people.
democracy which also means freedom of choice and freedom of expression of each individual is in fact even constrained by certain rules and controlled by the governing system of government.
