Government is a necessary evil, I think a small, limited, Representative government is best.\n\nIf all of the governments in the world fell or just shut down.  Gangs or tribes or families or groups of families would join together to maintain order and defend themselves from others (these are all primitive governments).  This is because man is a social creature and government is the top level of social order.  And then a few hundred years later they would create a welfare state taking more than half of your income.\n\nSo my short answer is new governments would form almost immediately.  If they didn't someone, would come along and take all of your stuff.

Advantage - you can explain everything in rational terms. Disadvantage - come on, you can't be that rational!

The benefit, as you see, is property ownership rights, apparently.  Singapore is a safe, corruption free country.  You could do worse.

Its a good start, Number one would solve most problems on its own. The rules I would like to add would be;\n5. Politics will become open and free for all people to have their say, a true democracy based on the right to attend law making debates to raise and vote on the issues  that concern you.\n6. Politicians will not be paid, but will only get expenses based on the average wage of a person from the area they represent

The best type of Government is a democracy without the party system....that is representatives vote on each issue independently keeping the interests of their repective constituencies in mind and without being held ransom to common party interests and ideology. This enables a healthy national debate on each issue separately so that views of all the people are taken into consideration before a decision is made.

Federal Republic does better than either one of those you listed, due to the divided and difused power that the various levels of government has so that power doesn't become concentrated in one area

Ron's answer is right on: the government has a monopoly on legalized force. This is a libertarian perspective, and libertarianism is recognized as the best system of government yet devised.

1. It slows things down and makes enacting laws innefficient.\n\n2. It tracks and records events related to laws being enacted.\n\n3. All bureaucracies grow. Never in history have they ever gotten smaller.\n\n4. They employ mostly low performing life-long staff that work at efficiency rates that are typically 2x - 10x less than private enterprise.

The biggest advantage to term limits is that one person doesn't develop too much control or power.   Some Senators have made a career out of it.....Ted Kennedy/Arlen Spectre.   They are established in Washington and carry a great deal of political muscle....or control.    \n\nThat muscle or pull gives them the ability to bring larger amounts of money back to their home states (even for the most ridiculous things), which makes setting term limits a disadvantage to those states that currently have long seated representation.\n\nI am all for term limits.   Fresh ideas and politicians that actually go to Washington to represent the people instead of representing themselves....

A representative government has proven itself to be the best form of government.  No arguing that.  The US also has capitalism going for it.

Democracy \nA system of government where the people rule.  \n\nRepresentative Democracy \nA democracy where the people elect representatives to rule for them.  \n\nConstitutional Monarchy \nA monarchy where the monarch is a figurehead. The country is ruled through elected Parliment Members. This monarchy also has a constitution.  \n\nMonarchy \nA system of government in which a king/queen/emperor etc. is the sole and absolute ruler. The right to rule was usually passed down to the eldest son, from the current monarch, when he/she died.  \n\nOligarchy \nA system of government in which a few people rule.  \n\nAristocracy \nA system of government in which a few people rule, usually the richest, and higher class. The right to rule was passed down within the family.  \n\nTyranny \nA system of government where a ruler has total power, not limited by a constitution or\nby other officials; especially one in ancient Greece. This ruler seizes power often by force, and rules single-handedly. In ancient Greece a tyrant often ruled fairly and justly and got important things done quickly. Many were very popular.  \n\nDictatorship \nA system of government in which one person has seized power violently, and is the sole ruler for life. (Or until he/she is overthrown).  \n\nTotalitarianism \nA system of government where every single part of an individual's life is controlled and watched by the government. People who support this kind of government, believe that strict order is the key to a society without chaos. Myanmar is run by a military government, often the case in a totalitarian government.  \n\nCommunism \nCommunism is a way of living in which the government owns and runs all the business. There are many forms of communism, the "ideal" form of society. Karl Marx set down the foundation of modern communism. Unfortunately all peaceful attempts to have a communist society have been abandoned early on. Usually the only way to have a communist region, is usually through revolution. These often have a cruel dictator, and are not "ideal." There are also many factions of communism, who usually fight each other. One example is Socialism.  \n\nAnarchy\nAnarchists believe that government is evil, and that it limits individual freedoms. So anarchy is no form of government at all. Its roots can be traced back to the Goths in Europe.
