520 _aAt the present moment Democracy may still be called a popular idea in the sense that everybody talks about it; but, in as far as it is associated with Parliamentary Government, it is regrettably dis credited. It is at once the hope of the workers, and their despair. The idea is worshipped and the fact deplored. There is a widespread feeling that every thing is wrong and an equally widespread uncertainty as to why it has gone wrong. And we are faced as a result with a paradoxical situation in which the more blunders we, of the nominally democratic countries, make, the more do we call upon the name of democracy. Those who are most loud in their protests against conduct which certainly seems to have popular support are also most loud in their praises of democracy. We are all well acquainted with the individual who rises at every meeting on every subject to suggest that the proper remedy is "democracy".
