Which hasn’t been proven. But what has been proven, is that democracy doesn’t work. Mathematically or otherwise.

What would you suggest instead then? Communism? Theocracy? Feudalism?

I would definitely suggest trying them, along with anarchy. Democracy is ripe for making corruption easy, not to mention how crazy it is to have a handful of people voting on just about everything in our lives because a few of their alleged policies at the time of their campaign we able to convince people to vote for them (without much alternatives). The truth is that nobody would ever agree with everybody’s policies and they put the important ones on the long finger to use in the next election citing how much they’ve done.
