What is funny - as well as sad and frightening - is the number of people here who apparently don't believe in democracy, even in principle. Democracy is the idea that we can elect people to do things for everyone else (the NHS, conservation, social security, infrastructure, regulations, police, army science etc etc). Yet all I can see here is people saying that it doesn't work. I think the truth is that it can be hijacked and THEN it doesn't work. The NHS (despite everything) was one of the greatest achievements of the 20th century, after all. And it was introduced by a government because of its beliefs and principles.
