re: #14 calochortus

I keep seeing conservatives asking “But what good is my vote if I don’t get my way?” Democracy means rule of the majority, not rule of what you and your friends want.

WHY DO THE CITIES GET TO DOMINATE EVERYTHING?!?! DOESN’T MY VOICE COUNT?!?!

They are really uncomfortable with ‘one man, one vote’, because at heart, they don’t really believe in representative democracy any more than they believe in liberty.

They believe liberty means THEY get to do what THEY want to do, and they get to prevent others from doing anything different. They believe democracy means their vote is the one that matters, and anyone who doesn’t agree with them probably shouldn’t be allowed to vote.
