Partnerships, of course.

Partnerships in WHAT? The rule of men? The Rule of Law? Anarchy?

What constitutes - "The Republic", and for what purpose?

A republick = A pile of People that understand and strengthen a worthy common cause = thesis.
A democracy = A pile of People that shit on a worthy common cause = antithesis.

Contracts are carved into stone, more authoritarian.

Partnerships are more voluntary on an ongoing basis, more liberty.

Libertarian Republic, for the win. We had it for a while, but let it slip away.

Stick with Aristotle. Plato and Socrates just aren't as good as The Philosopher.

Stick with de Tocqueville and La Rochefoucauld - the former understood the essence of our form of government, and nobody ever wrote perceptively about the true ways of the human heart than the latter.
