此篇內容：

Are you still exploring democracy?
你仍在研究「民主政治」嗎？

Absolutely.
當然。

Did you find the difference between Democracy and Republic?
那你是否發現「民主」和「共和」這兩種政治體制之間的不同？

No. Not as of yet.
沒有，到目前為止還沒有。

Shall I help?
需要我幫忙嗎？

Please.
勞煩您了。

A Democracy is that which allows for an unlimited majority to rule, but absolutely provides no basis for the protection of individual or minority rights.
「民主」是一種「讓絕對多數裁決(以「多數決」為規則)」的制度，但完全沒有提供個人或少數族群基本權利上的保障。

A Republic allows there to be a democratic process of voting, but through the Constitution imposes controls on the majority to allow for individual and minority rights.
「共和」制度保有民主投票(表決)的過程，但它透過(國家所制定的)憲法來控制多數族群，以讓(顧及)個人和少數族群的權利能被重視。

Now which do you prefer?
現在，你比較喜歡哪一個？

Honestly, I think I prefer true democracy.
老實說，我比較喜歡真正的民主。

I have just told you the difference.
我剛才已告訴你其中的差別了。

Right.
好的。

So you are saying that you are in favor of an unlimited majority with absolutely no regard for individual or minority rights.
所以你剛才是說，你比較喜歡一種有利於「完全不重視個人或少數族群權利」的絕對多數票決制度嘍？

Yes.
是的。

Why?
為什麼？

Because the will of the people should be the will of the planet.
因為人民(多數民眾)的意志，應該就是地球的意志。

But you see the idea is the will of the people are expressed in the Constitution, not in the majority system.
但你們都知道這概念是：人民的意志是「明文陳述在國家的憲法」上，並非以「多數決的投票制度」來表示的。(即：憲法表達著一個民主國家「人民的意志」。)

Well… if the Constitution would have help, then that might make sense..
-That's the key…

這個嘛… 如果「憲法」已有幫助(有被多數人重視)的話，這你說的就有道理…
-這正是關鍵…

But since the Constitution are held under the Republic…
- That's the key.

但是因為國會是掌控在共和黨…..
-那正是關鍵所在。

Then the Republic isn't working.
因而造成「共和制度」並沒有發揮作用。

No. The Republic doesn't work when it is replaced by a pure majority democracy. And that is what is happening.
不。當「共和制度」被一種純粹多數決的民主取代時，它才會無法(發揮功能)有效地運作。而這正是你們社會在發生的情況。

No, because if we were… if our system were working as a democracy, the situations that were in right now, we wouldn't be in. Because it's not the will of the majority.
不，因為如果我們是那樣的話…，如果我們真的以一種民主制度在運作的話，我們就不會陷入現在的情況。因為現在這情況不是多數民眾的意志。

The situation however that you are missing is that the structure, the form of government, called “Democracy” is what allows for the continuation of what you don't want.
然而關於這情況，你們沒有注意到(正缺漏)的是它運作的結構，也就是你們稱為「民主」的政府體制形式，正是這運作體制使得那些「你們不想看到的情況」持續不斷在發生。

The form of government called the “Republic” is the only way to bring to light how the Republic has been misrepresented.
你們稱為「共和」的政府體制形式，是唯一可以揭露「共和制度已如何被扭曲誤傳」的方式。

Okay.
好的。

You cannot, as your Einstein said, solve the problem from the same level in which the problem was created.
如你們的愛因斯坦所說的：你無法以「和問題被製造出來相同的」思維層次，來解決問題。(明白「共和制度如何被扭曲誤傳」，才能跨出製造出該問題的思維層次，有效解決問題。)

That makes a lot of sense on a lot of levels to me right now. It really doesn't truly…
現在你這解說在許多層面上對我來說，就蠻有道理了。它真的並沒有…

Do a little more of your own research. And you will see that just because there may be corruption in a Republic that allows there to be a misrepresentation doesn't mean that you abandon the idea itself .
多做一點屬於你自己的探索研究，你就會明白：只因為共和制度可能有貪腐就讓它被扭曲誤傳，並不表示你們要放棄這制度。

It simply means that you need to educate people to go back to it, which a democracy will not allow you to do.
它只是表示：你們需要教育民眾去重新研究「共和制度」的結構運作——那是一種「民主制度」不會允許你們那樣運作的機制。(民主制度只以選票多寡做裁決)

So do some more research. You will see.
再去做些研究調查吧！你們會明白的。

Thank you.
謝謝你。

Thank you.
謝謝。

你們需要教育民眾去重新研究「共和制度」的結構運作——那是一種「民主制度」不會允許你們那樣運作的機制。(民主制度只以選票多寡做裁決)

You need to educate people to go back and do more research on Republic, which a democracy will not allow you to do.
