That's totally irrelevant to the arguement prosequence.
People used reason to determine the result of the effect of instating a certain cause.
If the result of the effect was desirable, then whatever would cause that effect would be instated by the people through voting.
In a nutshell that's how democracy works, that's why we have rights and freedoms, as well currency.
To say people "believed" in democracy and it works because people believe in it is not correct. Democracy works because people use their reasoning to determine if what it does is desirable.
That's why you get political arguements because of different methods of reasoning, and in reality some people believe in manipulating the government and using peoples reasoning against them to their own benefit, which is how you can get scandals and fiascos.
So, to sum it up, yes it seemed to work. Seemed.
