The Huge Problematic with an 'Equilibrated Polity' is the 'Unified Top' and the 'Distributed Bottom'.

The Huge Problematic with an 'Equilibrated Polity' is the 'Unified Top' and the 'Distributed Bottom'. In the Divine Right of Kings the problem was merely to determine who was the 'King' or 'Queen'. In Autocracy, the problem is who is the 'Autocrat'; in Plutocracy, who is the 'Richest'; and in 'Oligarcy' who are my 'Friends'. Once the Top of Power is determined, the 'Bottom'; the 'Social' becomes whatever the Top decides or the type of 'Rule'. There is no question of 'who Rules' and 'who' and 'how' the 'Bottom Lives'. 'Rule' is 'Unified' and 'Living is Distributed'. The Bottom is at the Mercy of the Top. But; in a Democracy, the 'Top' is held together by a 'Written Constitution', subject to 'Amendments' and to a 'Constitutional Law'. Its very important to 'understand' that the Top 'does not rule'; it 'Governs' and it Governs according to the 'Political Formulations in the Constitution'. The Constitution 'qualifies' the excercize of 'Power' by the 'TOP'. Not only that, it also 'Describes', 'Defines', and 'Mandates' the 'Freedom and Equality' of 'all the Individuals' at the Bottom. Democracy 'defines' and 'describes' the 'Unified top of Power' and also the 'Distributed Rights' of 'Freedom and Equality' of the Many at the bottom. It could be said, Democracy diffuses and defines the 'Unity' of the Top of Power and 'consolidates' the Freedom and Equality of the Individual at the Bottom. Hence, many of the Problems of the 'One' and the 'Many' go away. But, if the 'Relation' is properly 'Described' and 'Defined'; it allows each Part of Government to function in a 'Balanced' manner. The Top still has Power, but its well described and defined. Other 'Forms of Governemnt' are free to determine how they will 'Govern' or 'Rule'.
