Deficiency

"Some of the problems of governance in the United States today stem from an excess of democracy . . . The effective operation of a democratic political system usually requires some measure of apathy and noninvolvement on the part of some individuals and groups."
--Samuel Huntington U.S. Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission
