I think that democracy is among the worst forms of government, but on average it's better than any other form and that is why it's good. I'm not sure that you can just tweak democracy and call it a better form of something that is essentially a chaotic process - only experience and time will really tell how it averages out.

A good tyrant will beat democracy everyday, but how to get good tyrants is an unsolved problem.

What I meant by better, was from the perspective of the individual to live comfortably.

If by "individual" you mean every individual, then I think you are talking about an utopia :). Although I agree with you basic point, that we need a better system of government. It's really a shame that a race, that has almost godlike technology available to it, uses an archaic forms of tribal governance systems.

Fair point.
