Democracy Index
Remember, democracy never lasts long.
The essence and origin of democracy, arguably, is dividing up work, not "people
rule" or the intervening concept of divisioning people to rule. The democratic
process evolved to legitimize the logical right of each person to earn and
own their daily bread by the sweat of their brow. All definitions of democracy
which have lasted more than a few regimes have attempted to establish people's
right to work and receive the fruits of their work, to own their labor. The
Greek origin of democracy, in word and work, was divisioning of people to
rule--demos cratia. To rule on what? The use of their time to
survive--work! Can there be any greater embodiment of democracy than
democratic capitalism

Better democracy decreases the time between problem-origin and
problem-solution. Optimal democracy minimizes the time-lost. Optimal democracy
requires level rights.
