I suppose it comes down to needs and requirements for people, and in effect, what the people want. That is the core of democracy - letting the people decide for themselves, and thereby maintaining a just and fair system. So yes, if democracy is enabled to work, I believe that it is the best system. However, every system has its flaws, and there are always arguments over different facets of the same word. Like tudor said, I don't think we live in a fair democracy. But who's fault is that? Ours.
