I believe that the monarchy form of government is ideal. Only problem is the rampant corruption and abject selfishness of so many monarchs...historically speaking. If kings and queens could be humble, selfless governors, righteous and just. We'd be much better off than in this "democracy"

Problem is, the problem's worse with presidents. Most monarchs have been much less corrupt and far less selfish than the average "man of the people".

Point well taken Jeffrey. Only counter point is in a democracy if the President is an arse he's voted out. A maledict King/Queen you are stuck with for life.

Holy Right-Believing Tsarevich-Martyr Alexei, pray to God for us poor sinners!

Alexei would have gone down in history as Alexei the Enterprising if only there had been more patience in this world.
