Poll Results: Presidential or Parliamentary: Which System of Govt is more efficient & stable?

[Kompromat]

We ran a poll on our social media to find which system of Govt is preferred by the public as more efficient and stable. Here are the results.

Presidential system is garbage and prone to extremism. It has to be overengineered so dictators form, making it convoluted. Because of that near-dictators form. Parliamentary is the best because a Prime Minster must have the confidence of his ministers at all times or he will be brought down.

My vote goes for presidential system but the president should not be exempted or above the law...i.e no immunities.. rest is good.

You can keep that in Gangadesh, we are talking about Pakistan and our majority thinks presidential way of govt is better. Different countries, different needs...to each their own.

Turkish Presidential system is good. The President can fire the assembly but he must also resign if he uses that power. Under the new system the Presidential & Parliamentary election must be held on the same day.

Pakistan is Federation with 4 different strong cultures. Neither democracy nor Presidential system is suitable. All 4 provinces wants there equal share in the govt. If one province has success story other 2 fails and one stays neutral. Pakistan is unique country from many aspects. In Turkey , USA or EU all have strong bonding on the bases of nationalism.

Presidential is so much better. Just look at our neighbor India (largest democracy). 71 years of democracy and is still shit. 22% of population is below poverty line, meaning 290 million people are living in shit(not just shitty conditions, but literally shit). No toilets, lower minimum wage for unskilled individuals, extremism and so on.

They have population the same size as china, yet they always want to compete with us, by comparing their GDP(2.5 trillion) to ours 300 million. I mean ffs all their elections are based on Pakistan hatred.

I mean we all are witness here, tell me in last decade which election was won in Pakistan based on hatred against India? We are thinking of progression yet these Indian backward cucks, don't want to see the bigger picture. Fault, is totally on the system, if they had strong presidential system, India would have been competing against China or USA but no. They are shit and they want to remain shit.

My vote for Presidential system but the President shouldn't be immune to everything. I like US governance style

Whats wrong with Kings and divinely appointed holy men?

where are you gonna find candidates suitable to become king?


what about a semi presidential system?

Frankly we need something like Assad or ideally the Hashmite king of Jordan; at least things get done and slow change and not the same happens.

Perhaps five elections later things qould improve, be it for presidential or parliamentary system it’s more about slight organizational differences.
What is needed is plain qualification based leadership. Regardless of merit or not, if you aren’t educated and experienced then you aren’t qualified for the post. No matter how many ignorant goats march with you, and that is the majority in Pakistan.

I voted for a presidential system. We need strong empowered leaders and we need checks and balances not hurdles and limitations.

 

[Captain77W]

Presidential systems are prone to deadlock, just look at what happened with Obama in the US, he was barely able to get anything passed due to the opposition controlling both houses of legislation

 

[Proudpakistaniguy]

Any system can work if implemented better. Perfect system can become failure if did not implement properly. Its not system but those who run it matter most

 

[Imad.Khan]

There are goods and bads in both form. The biggest con of Presidential system is that it can become very dictatorial like, Gadaffi was a President and so was Hosni Mubarak, they were running a sham democracy, where they kept on winning because people were afraid to not vote for them.

The downside of parliamentary form is that unless the winning party has absolute majority they have to form a coalition which come with strings attached making it harder for the government to achieve its targets.
