I've been taking Natural Law's meaning of the word "democracy" to be the pure form - where every voter votes on every decision in which case we would have mob rule.

I prefer a constitutional republic.

While I agree with you that a constitutional republic is preferred, democracies have worked. Where governments fail are when laws become perverted and moral codes break down.
