Personally, I've always believed the best form of government is an absolute monarchy headed by a benevolent monarch. The problem with that, of course, is benevolent monarchs are few and far between.


Probably, both "benevolent monarchs" and non-corrupt democratic politicians do not exist in reality.


You may be surprised your role in an absolute monarchy would be a horse manure cleaner, not a noble landlord you are imagining it in your head. Same would go for your children - with no possibility to change it. Have fun!


You’re not truly engaging with the commenter in a debate. This comment is not in good faith.


Having no other arguments, this attempt to appeal to "not having good faith" looks really weak.


Benevolence isn’t enough. They also have to be really smart, competent, and motivated.
