Military dictatorship, you can focus on it, you can fight it directly. It's a band of power-driven people.
Democracy involves that old-fashioned thing called working it out.
In a democracy there are only two types of power: there's organized people and organized money, and organized money only wins when people aren't organized.
I am opposed to the accumulation of executive power anywhere.
Aggression is simply another name for government.
The use of large-scale military force in volatile regions of underdeveloped countries is difficult to do right, has major unintended consequences and rarely turns out to be quick, effective, controlled and short lived.
Democracy is a destiny of humanity which cannot be averted. It can be delayed but not defeated.
Our public life withers when only the most extreme voices get attention. Most of all, democracy breaks down when the average person feels their voice doesn't matter; that the system is rigged in favor of the rich or the powerful or some narrow interest.
The exuberance of democracy leads to undisciplined and disorderly conditions which are inimical to development.
In a democracy there is a centralization of governmental power in a simple majority.
