Republic or democracy or dictatorship or something else?

What are we these days? A lot of people say we are a democracy. I don't know if I like a democracy, based on my Poli Sci 201 class (have you heard the idea of the two wolves and one lamb voting on what they should eat for dinner?). Are we a republic? The rule of law? Everyone's rights must be respected, regardless of what the majority says? Are we a dictatorship? I don't think so.


Maybe we are what Edward Griffin said, a democratic dictatorship. We vote for who dictates what we should do.

What do y'all think?
