A decade ago I started this question on who decides the fate of people in democracy. The adopted constitution through political representation was expected to sense the need of nation and work towards progress of the citizens. But world political order and national politics are into the grips of market, capital and powerful lobbies of media, businessmen and politicians. Whether democracy is too taken over by the capitalist idea of domination by few on the hard work of majority.
Good question! Even good institutions in developed countries can't provide the possibilities for all members of the society, and even for half of them to have real development policy. Look what is going on in the US with Trump - he is a real symbol for the people, who are tired of politicians. And look how the President of the USA can do almost nothing against this system! That's a lot to think about.
