Which Of These Evils? History & Civil Business Politics
Democracy is still my favorite. A rule by a representative government, while not perfect, is still one the preserves the most freedoms for the most people. Since I support freedom and liberty and the right of the people, my choice remains democracy, mostly likely it will always be democracy.
Evils These Which
aristarchy -- government by the best
By choosing these, I would hope that they are the best because they are the wisest and fairest!
I liked the sound also of Holy men, but at the end of the day, what is classed as 'Holy' in one religion, may not be classed as the same in another, and as long as people have their own beliefs, no-one is going to win under this type of ruling.
So, hopefully I would have chosen wisely myself, by putting my vote to 'Aristarchy'
