Fact check me on this, but I think the world is more stable than it has ever been, including politically, economically, and geo-strategically. Only the business model of the press has degraded.https://twitter.com/JohnBrennan/status/1075884498955456512 …

In 2006, it was 13% in 'full democracies' vs 38% in authoritarian. EIU only started this measure in 2000s.

Polity use a 3-point scale: democracy, anocracy, and authoritarian. If you look at p.32 of 2017 report http://www.systemicpeace.org/vlibrary/GlobalReport2017.pdf … you will see that USA is ranked as 'democracy', below likes of Canada & Ireland which are labelled 'full democracy'. Same as EIU report I cited
