Bzzzzzzzzttt... Wrong! The problem is not too much democracy, the problem is the abuse of democracy.
Back in about 400BCE the Ancient Greeks had the same problem:
"Our Democracy is destroying itself because it abuses its right to freedom and equality. Because it teaches its citizens to consider audacity as a right, lawlessness as freedom, abrasive speech as equality, and anarchy as progress."
Isocrates 436-338 BCE
