My Mind Wanders

I continue to think about the importance of the reverse dominance hierarchy. I think that Democracy inherently is based on a reverse dominance hierarchy - it is the political embodiment of it. I, for one, am immensely grateful to our founding fathers for taking the risk in setting up a government based on such a radical model. Each time the democracy has been expanded, by including new group - the landless, the blacks, and finally women - it only becomes more true and strong.
