How democracies trample rights.(Correction, Please!)(Brief Article)
Comptroller Walker makes a second point: the United States was designed as a "republic," not a "democracy"--which might preclude his ever becoming a columnist for the New York Times. The Founding Fathers probably wouldn't fit in at the Times either, since the Constitution makes no mention of "democracy" (nor does the Declaration of Independence). The Constitution does say (Article IV, Section 4): "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government." Indeed, the more "democratic" the U.S. has become, the more our liberty and economy have suffered. We took a big hit in 1913, for instance, when the federal income tax amendment was ratified, along with popular election of senators.
