This an attempt at debating a few concepts that very few seem to question.

Why is it today generally accepted that the majority should decide over the minority? Is everything moral as long as it's what the majority wants? If not, where should the line be drawn? People seem to associate democracy as the ultimate form of government, but I look at it as the currently least bad. Isn't democracy just mob rule with a few restraints?

Also, I'd like to hear a definition of democracy (I think it's ill-defined and it's important for the discussion). What concepts and freedoms has to be implemented in order to call a country democratic?
