Democracy is better because it:
Promotes equality among citizens
Enhances the dignity of the individual
Improves the quality of decision-making
Provides a method to resolve conflicts
Allows room to correct mistakes.
If some of our expectations are not met, we start blaming the idea of democracy. The first step toward thinking carefully about the outcomes of democracy is to recognise that democracy is just a form of government. It can only create conditions for achieving something. The citizens have to take advantage of those conditions and achieve their goals.
