Two is Enough

Democracy has three tendencies that tend to lead governments into points of no return. Democracy by its nature is collectivist. It begins with a collectivist ownership of government. Representatives of the collective have authority to regulate and tax and that authority is used to regulate and tax mostly private enterprise. It gradually tends to regulate all private enterprise and property for the collective. There is a tendency in all democracies towards totalitarianism. By totalitarianism I mean all facets of life come under the scrutiny of government leaving less and less freedom and liberty. As government grows it overreaches and and becomes hopelessly bureaucratic. The two parties can argue about it but have no remedy.
