Mark Goulston, M.D.: Coming Soon to a Congress Near You

Do these sound like any political parties you know?

Onepercentocracy (one-per-cent-oc'-ra-cy) -- a system of government where the most greedy and entitled are elected by the wealthiest and most powerful greedy and entitled, and where the 1% of members of society least likely to care about the remaining 99%, are continuing to be disproportionately and excessively rewarded with goods and services provided off the backs of people anywhere in the world that can provide them for the cheapest price (a.k.a. the "Yellers").

Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) -- a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of achieving, and where the members of society least likely to succeed or even to sustain themselves, are abundantly rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers (a.k.a. the "Whiners").

And the solution?

Meritocracy (mer-it-oc'-ra-cy) -- a system of government where those most capable of seeing and then leading their society into a future that serves all fairly and justly are elected by the most mature/mission driven and least immature/ego driven, and where the members of society most able to see, chart and implement a course of action are rewarded by meaning, significant and global respect, appreciation and esteem (a.k.a. As Good as It Gets, where everybody makes everyone else want to be a better person).
