Personally, I find that any good democratic system needs to have two important characteristics:
1. Empowering the people.
2. Uniting the nation.
In Germany, the government is very responsive to people's aspirations and their needs. And the people are respectful to their elected leaders and willing to cooperate. The relationship is more on equal partner basis. Unlike ours which is talking about 'Masters and Servants'(far from truth). I think the German sound education system contributes a great deal towards this very desirable happy outcome. Anyone cares to share?

I have high regard for the German education system (which I wrote about earlier in my blog). I also the values and practical approach of Germany - including their democratic structure (although I confess that I do not know this matter in depth).
I also like their social security and health care system - which are based on the right balance between pro-business and pro-people.
