Well it's true.
But the problem is that direct democracy is only posible in theory so the only thing that will happen in a classless would be chaos.
To prevent chaos organisation is needed, organisation leeds to hierarchysation leeds to stratification.
As I said a democracy with a constitutional monarchy is preferable to almost every thing else, it's second best.

I have very mixed feelings about monarchy because he king/queen is not chosen by the people but born into the role. And in Sweden's case that is a bad thing. It's not that nice to have a king who can't even write(it's quite true actually). It gets even worse because he gets a share of the tax money making him rich and for those money he buys cars, which he crashes!

All that aside I find him to be quite a good king and does great advertising for Sweden abroad. And his daughter princess Madeleine is hot so that makes it even better



Best pic I could find in a hurry.

Damn, that's one hot princess.
Also if I'm not mistaking, the royal swedesh family of today are the descendants of JB Bernardotte, a simple french man who becamed one of Napoleon's mareshalls, and then was propled to the status of king of Sweden.
For betraying Napolen, the victorious great powers of Europe allowed him to keep the throne.
Now I'm probably going to loose karma.

They are called Bernadotte and have their roots in France, so I guess your right.

Zara Phillips, Queen Elizabeth's granddaughter is quite attractive too - she is not a princess though.

To me royalty is a waste of time and money!

In England, I think most people couldn't care less about the Queen, they have more important things in their lives! The Queen doesn't really have any power, and it is a position from the past! To be honest once the Queen dies, I can see the royal family falling apart because no one has any respect for the rest of the royal family! Prince Charles is a toser, and a lot of TV shows take the mike out of him (eg trigger happy tv). Then there's Prince William, who all the girls seem to like! I don't real like him, he does some stupid things, such as dressing up as a nazi to a fancy dress party. Considering our Royal family has links to Germany and during WW2, King George even gave information about our country to the Germans so dressing up as one isn't really a good idea! Then there's Prince Harry, who takes drugs! Need I say any more?

I believe there are no real rules, but of course they have to consider what the people of Sweden might think of their partners. And she's taken
