this is how the Soviet Union came to be. The revolutions of 1917 aimed to create liberty, peace and prosperity. Out of that aim grew Soviet Russia because of people making the same exact case that Mike Lee does here.

Democracy doesn't guarantee good outcomes — nothing does — but it provides accountability when we don't get them. Leaders say they want less democracy to give us better outcomes, but what they want is less accountability.
