A design works only when it is followed in true letter in spirit. Acha Acha hap hap and ganda ganda thu thu cannot make this system work. A democracy with dynasties is never a success, those who say India and BD are success they are wrong. In both these countries common man is suffering. Only elite class is enjoying. People live in slums, travel in transports like pack of sardines. This is what you call democracy? Public health facilities are full of filth this what you call democracy. If you want to follow western way of governance, adopt it full or look for alternatives. Democracy with current mindset of politicians and ineffective electoral system will not lead to any goodies. As it is said garbage in garbage out or in the words of Hasan Nisar "Qeemay ki machine may khanzeer ka gosht dalnay par qeema bhi khanzeer ka hi milay ga"
Right. Again, what you're saying is fine, there are a million and one things wrong with the way the system runs in Pakistan.
But ask yourself why is that? Please remember that like all topics, cause and effect needs to be considered? Why hasn't it worked for Pakistan? Are we some inferior race of human beings who can't adopt an advanced form of civilization? No.
It's because democracy is no magic fix, it guarantees you nothing until you guarantee it something. you're asking, why does this tree not bare me any fruit? The answer is simple, every time the tree had been planted, you uprooted it in your impatience before even the slightest show of progress.
Democracy has worked for India, they are a million times more politically stable than us, they are seen as the responsible state in SA and have been seen as that a lot because of their past of democracy where as ours saw fake democracies and dictatorships, one after the other, coups, executions etc.
Common man will never become more educated. This specie is still fighting the war for survival. Just out on streets and see what our education system is giving, only law defying citizen. Poverty will keep bringing these goons into power for one plate of biryani.
He will. He will either do it before it's time, but since this is Pakistan, he will be made to suffer unimaginably and eventually will forced in to learning how to get things done.
This is democracy, where the people themselves, if they don't give a toss, the system has no hope. The moment they start caring and know what needs to be done, even through trial and error, they will change their ways.
Granted the current parties use all sorts of ploys and lies to run their campaign, granted the electoral system is weak and corrupt. Granted, fine. But this is the only long term solution.
Now after all that, I ask you, if not this, what other magical fix to our political landscape do you hold?
Unless you've got some idea greater than democracy....
