Alfie,
Thanks for your positive response!
You're right Alfie. The term "democracy" is one that has lost its original meaning and has come to represent other things. It is over-used and often misunderstood. To say that our modern governments are not truly democratic, is not to day that they are bad. They are simply different.
We are in agreement, and you are right, debate is great.
Especially when both sides find themselves in agreement!
