I don't support Democracy or think it's a good form of government. Now I'm not a bad person because of that but it's the conclusion I came to after research and personal experience.

A vote by majority implies quantity over quality, masses over individuals, numbers over brains, and so on.

Talent, genius, and personality play no part but sheer numbers.

The people voted for George W Bush and so thats who was president then.

The people voted for Obama and now he is president.

Yet both are equally bad and did nothing to serve the interests of the people.

There also is little responsibility in a Democracy. If something goes wrong for Obama he just blames Republicans. If something goes bad for Bush he just blamed Democrats, etc.

In a wolf pack the leader is the wolf that possesses the most strength and endurance. If he messes up the rest can kill him and be replaced by a better one.

Basically we need a government where the one leader has the power to do anything but he takes full responsibility for his decisions.

Global technocracy managed by an advanced AI computer with robot enforcers is the only way forward.

What good does it do when a nation of 300 million kills a man for screwing up?

I've become increasingly skeptical that human-level general intelligence is possible in non-organic robots. I feel that the ability to solve the binding problem is a prerequisite for human-level general intelligence or higher and until we find some reason to believe that non-organic robots can have unitary phenomenal consciousness I think it's unlikely they can.

The future is indeed a global technocracy, but not managed by AGI but instead super-intelligent, super-blissful, super-empathic organic robots (post-humans).
