Well true democracy, as evinced by the Greek city states, has never 
re-emerged.


What we have evolved is a reasonable balance of political power 
reflecting the underlying reality of who does have (financial) power in 
our society.
It's certainly not perfect, especially in the USA, where a vote between 
the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea...(Lol!) is not an especially nuanced 
choice...but its better than a lot of alternatives.
