And given all the time, energy, and money tossed at "democratic" elections, wouldn't it be more efficient and cost-effective to just let some wannabe autocrat take charge and do as he will?

Tyranny is always best countered by the People, regardless of cost.

Any oppressed people, fighting for independence, would fight until the last person.
It's only cowards and bean-counters who would abdicate that responsibility.

Only cowards die on their knees.

The point you are missing, troglodyte, is that a constitutional federal republic IS a democracy.

How have you been so ignorant of your own country for this many years?


Tip for the day: Next time you hear the words "mob rule", feel free to ignore everything else they have to say.

You mean like Trump 47. We can track the outcome of your question in real time at the moment. The question is do you like what you see so far?

Mob rule, you mean, like on January 6th?

Certainly not when it's a Kakistocracy.
