Then I am not understanding your argument. If you want to suggest majority rule as a better solution than absolute majority rule, okay. But I am still having trouble seeing how a decision with majority support will be overturned by this "49%" minority. When does majority rule turn into absolute majority rule? |
I think we agree but are just wording the arguments in different ways.
Absolute majority rule is when the 51% majority of voters has the power to vote the other 49% out, making them a 100% majority.
Majority rule is when certain rights like voting are guaranteed. :p
