| Actually, I think it would be more accurate to say the US is a liberal democracy, while a country like the UK is a representative democracy. I say this because the winning party in the UK can do as they please, without fear of it getting bounced out by another branch of government. In the US, a liberal constitution has prevented that.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
