Democracy Is a Problem With No Solution

To have a democracy, citizens need to agree about some very high and high level ends. So we want to live with relative security, that we don't want to be in constant fear of external invasion or civil strife. And the third is that we are the kind of human group that has agreed that we want to living without a boss. We'd refuse the idea of a king or a tyrant or a dictator or a hunter telling the rest of us what to do. But it could seem to be a problem with no solution, given the passion with which people express different views about how we should live.
