Democracy is Flawed

I believe that democracy is flawed, Leaders need to fight to maintain their position or to get elected. Politicians need to make unfeasible promises to get elected then when they are in office they need to spend money recklessly and achieve short term goals.

Democracy forces politicians to focus on short term goals and not worry about long term consequences because as soon as someone is voted out they don't have to worry about the repercussions of their policies.

In short the constant pressure to keep people happy and to stay in power makes it impossible to run a country properly.

P.s I am not saying we should get rid of democracy, all other systems of government have equal flaws, I just don't think we should accept democracy as the holy grail of Governing.
