  Ok. If "works" means, "is good eonugh to be used for the purpose", I guess it works. But shamanistic medicine wokrs by the same measure so it's really not a high bar to clear.

    Not really? Shamanistic medicine doesn't work. Switzerland has the highest functioning democracy on the planet.

      I guess, but I only guess, that if it's not happening in the States it means it's impossible and shamanistic. Kind of like universal healthcare, you know.

Somehow I think being completely secure in last two world wars contributes to the success of their high functioning democracy. Also, I thought we were talking about elections not democracy. Democracy can work perfectly well even if the elections select completely random party to rule if all parties are good enough.
