Seriously, I think democracy is the way. It does require either some degree of altruism on the part of the leadership, or a reasonably educated and engaged voting population.

People seem so amazed when they see corruption in high places, when there is so little historical evidence that anything else ever takes place. Why anyone thinks that democracy can be more effective than any other system in ridding us of this, I don't know.


To quote Ecclesiastes 5:8

If you see oppression of the poor and denial of justice and righteousness in the province, do not be shocked at the sight; for one official watches over another official, and there are higher officials over them.
