What is the "whole point of dictatorship"? At the end of the day, the difference between you and I is that I prefer that people have a choice in the form of government that they want. You do not.
I prefer that people have a choice in the form of government as well. But that's not at all how it works in the US at this point.....especially after citizens united, the US is unrecognizable to any kind of democracy today.. Only oligopolies have any choice or effect to our government and thanks to liberal ideology monopolies, a lot of individuals have even lost their 1st amendment rights.
So while (in theory) I agree with Harry Bosch, I believe in practice Barbos is probably closer to the superior representation for the largest amount of people. At this point, only a dictator (hopefully benevolent) or authoritative could have any power to empower middle class or poor people.
