- starfallg 5y agoThe idea that a democracy can't get anything done is pretty silly. The problem with the Indian system isn't really to do with democracy, rather the structure of the Indian political system that can be fixed. The CCP took decades in order to settle upon a structure that worked for them, before Deng it was endless chaos and internal strife.
