Sounds about right aico if you look at the percentage turnout at elections and the ease potential candidates can be thrust up front, based on little or no qualification to actually manage a country, but based on their "beliefs" and trivia like abortion issues. It's two levels up from the Britney Spears Fanclub.
Even when an existing leader has demonstrated a level of inept conduct - he can even get elected for a second term. Sure is seriously sad and unhealthy for any nation.
Seriously, any country is the same as a corp, tho on a bigger scale. If "USA Inc" was a corp - the Chairman and Board of Directors would be thrown out on the street years ago. They have nothing to offer the shareholders - only masses of problems for decades ahead on many levels - and not a sign of any share dividends.
