Democracy sucks ass. At least in dictatorships there is no illusion that you are been screwed over by the state.

Lately ive been thinking. Anarchy would never work. There are just too many assholes who would abuse a lawless state. It would be a nightmarish place. So I thought of ways to make the current system fair, because it is fair in principle, but like Anarchy and communism, leads to injustice and corruption.

So what if you were to alter the current system to minimize the negative effects. I started considering a form of government where a panel of randomly selected people are brought in to decide state policy. They would be brought in for one decision and then they would return to their normal lives. Sort of like jury duty. A government truly run by the people.

I did some reading and this idea of mine is very similar to a hypothetical type of government I had not yet heard of.

Demarchy.

I think it is a beautiful idea, with just one flaw and that is whilst random is fair, it could also be dangerous.

We hardly want a racist football hooligan who often goes around the streets "paki bashing" on a regular basis to recieve important state related duties.

But still, Demarchy is better then what we have now. Prepare for the Demarchist revolution.

What about a half-democracy where everyone has to take an IQ test at some age, let's say at 30. The top percent then votes for congress within themselves (That is vote for persons not parties) and congress would consist only of a few people, say 7-21.

Most of today's useless politicians would be out of congress, All the world's idiots wouldn't be able to be bought through ads and shit and hopefully end all political parties. Best of all we'd be 100% sure that our country isn't run by a bunch of retarded politicians and non-qualified people wouldn't rule.

This probably wouldn't last very long since the other 99% like myself I think wouldn't be too happy about this for very long, especially all the Ex-politicians. But it sure would be wonderful :)

Monarchy is the only reasonable form of government. (I'm not sure if I'm joaking or being serious here...)
