Everyone talks about what the "best" system is but none have adequately solved the human corruption problem. Every system eventually falls due to human corruption imo. The US founders were on to something by trying to break up power and have each group kept I'm check but that too is failing.
Stop trying to fix the symptoms.
Yeah, separation of powers is a pretty old and workable concept, 8 times older than the whole history of the US, and has worked for most democratic countries since.
In addition to the corruption problem, there's also the problem of who gets to make the decisions. The people affected by those decisions want them to be made by smart people who have their best interests at heart. But, those aren't the kinds of people who end up in leadership positions. Whether it's capitalism, communism, even monarchies, the type of people who tend to be in charge are the ones who want power and know how to get it and use it.
The fact you think some old white englishmen created the partition of power tells us a lot about your level of education.
Lol talk more shit about things I never said loser
