Malaysian, American Democracies

Some people are not very happy with the democracy that we have in Malaysia. In that case take a look at American democracy. Then find out who is worse.

1. Money Politic exists in Malaysia and America. Over here its the politicians who give out money to the people in vote buying but over there its the other way round. The people or to be more specific, the Jews who give money to the politicians who want to run for public office. The money takes care of 30-40% of campaign expenses of every congress man! As a result, congress as well as the executive is indebted to the Jews

2. The cabinet. In Malaysia, members of the cabinet are picked out from peoples' representatives in parliament or senate. But in American, the president makes his own pick from unelected members. As a result, a president inclined towards oil business, would have many oil men in his cabinet as is the case with Bush. Such a government would start a war to get at somebody's oil wells.

3. Kicking out head of government. In Malaysia, the prime minister can be kicked out by a simple vote of no confidence in parliament. But it is not so in America. Attempts to unseat Bush through impeachment failed.

So who has a better democracy?
