Democracy, Republic, or Dictatorship?

The original title of this blog series questioned the “democracy” of not being able to choose my own food.  An astute reader noted there is a difference between a democracy and a republic.  I have published her post.  Based on her thoughts I’ve changed the original title to better reflect the blog.  Maybe we really are a democracy and the will of the majority, or at least those that have enough money to purchase great lobbyists, is now forcing their will onto everyone?  If so, those us on the fringe, like Rawsome Foods, are definitely in trouble . . . once again.
