Your logic escapes you.. I was talking about ancient Isreal not the United States.. A Kingdom _vs_ a Republic thats been currently morphed into a democracy (which is Mob Rule).. A Kingdom is Mob Rule also but the Mob is smaller..
When dealing with Mob Rule(democracy).. you must deal with the symptoms of it.. (a social disease) Socialism the main symptom..
You gave an example to bolster that argument. If that example doesn't apply to us, then it wasn't a very good argument.
