The price of democracy
We are accustom think the democracy as an perfect system, but we
consider it in the west countries, because other countries in the word think
the democracy a failed of civility, it is the relative moralism, this is the
customs that in a country are dominant, that is daily following of history of
that country; it is as the our customs we have got custom that the democracy is
free, and in fact nobody asks to us some money necessary to live in democracy,
hence the price isn’t. It is present every day, how? It is the principal
question, and the price of democracy is the lack of freedom of make the actions
that one tribunal could judge illegal; the price are the laws, necessary
certainly, but it is a price, the prohibition of every actions, legal or
illegal, a price likewise necessary, because a state is a nation and no a
brothel, hence the laws are necessary, but beyond the necessity the laws are
also a price; when we says and judge ourselves as free, we are erring because
the freedom is that whose the law recognize the legitimacy, hence the freedom
of speak, think expression, write(otherwise I could be in jail or capital pain),
and opinion, that is the think expressed, otherwise it is alone a mute opinion;
but the law condemns the robbery, the homicide and other crimes, that are
called so because it violets the proprieties of other; it is the price, the
forgotten of to make everything; therefore the price is the freedom, the
freedom of choose illegal actions, this liberty isn’t, and the cost is so, why?
In common opinion it is necessary to civil living together, and it is normal
for us, after I will consider origin of this think, because we have got custom
to respect of rules, and never we think that these rules are limitations,
limitations of our freedom, because we don’t think that the freedom is absence
of rules, that are everywhere because necessary, but in unison it are also the
limitations; in fact we can make everything when we are in owner house, alone
and because in that place we are owner of ourselves and to decide every
actions, because nobody can impede it, why? Simple because it isn’t, thereupon
it can’t impede to us make something, we are alone, and we can make all. The
second motive of this assay, why we are accustomed to respect of law? Simple
because we are accustomed once the
childhood to respect of some rule, the
polite comportment during the dinner, to don’t say something that is impolite,
to respect of guests, that are daily rules of every family, hence once the
children’s age we have took the accustom of respect something, persons or
things; this exercise is going to follow our life, thank it we think
instinctively that the crime is wrong, because our freedom has already been
limited once the childhood, through the politeness; whereby we pay the price of
democracy for whole our life.
