Let me agree to disagree? democracy is both participative and responsive governance but, "IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE LEVEL OF EDUCATION OF THE CITIZEN" less educated people ruin the concept of the much-loved Plato

Or, participative ?
I find democracy, as a system, still beset with the same problems that Plato highlights. Yet, its prsctice today has the sanction of our historical evolution. The problem is essentially rooted in human nature, while handling power and authority to rule.
Technology can certainly help ... But the real crux is in human character : will it always choose right, when it has the power to have his way. --
