His private and public interest overlaps
He cannot be rich if his kingdom is not rich
He rules with the sovereignty that he represents all interest of his people.
In a democracy, the politicians are only representing SOME interest of the people.
Democracy Politicians are elected by Charisma and Money.
whereas a monarchy is elected and appointed under the social contract of the governed and govern
That the monarch will do his best to serve the general will
It is also true that the King has no opponents against him and that's a good thing.
Look where America got them in the issue of slavery
It took them 4 years to fight a war losing 5% of their population
to ban slavery
That doesn't sound very good
Whereas the King only wrote a law
outlawing slavery
and slavery was outlawed without losing a single drop of blood
Wouldn't that give the Government more power than it already has?\
If he serves the interest of you better than the politicians of democracy
would that be a bad thing?
If Trump only represent the interest of the Republican Party, is he really representing the interest of everybody?
monarchy is okay but you have to have a good monarch
GG @CallMeTruckson, you just advanced to level 4!
A king however needs to represent the interest of everybody in terms of the general will.
Even the ancient greek thinkers considered monarchy to be the best form of government
A king?
Even early-moderns like Hobbes
argued the monarch to be a best form of government
even post-modern thinkers like Nietzche argues the King is the best type of government to secure the best of human potential
Not too sure about that
What if the king is an asshole
Who's to stop em?
Why would the King be an asshole?
Hypothetical
Does not exist
The king does his best to serve the nation at the public's interest
how do you think China managed to survive such a long-term monarchy
a bad king makes a bad monarchy
"the mandate of heaven" is essentially the same as a social contract
The King or Queen
