Utter nonsense. True democracy is entirely comprised of checks & balances, via the popular vote.
The popular vote, without unalienable rights, would allow any atrocity to take place by any majority, over any minority vote.

Is this not obvious common sense?

What country are you speaking of, and if the U.S., are you speaking of CURRENT government being a plutocracy, or the government as FOUNDED?

I agree, but sadly, it doesn't seem you understand the unconstitutional changes it took to get us here.

I suggest you do a little more investigating.
