The respect for my difference is what makes democracy worth all the flaw.
Thanks
Actually the real difference is that while I respect those rights, I believe those rights should be earned by individuals rather than just be given for free.

Good thought, but what happens to the one who is unproductive and has no capacity to earn the right. Isn't his/ her will and wish not important.
local governance is horrible in india too, because the internal government mechanisms don't work very well and the media doesn't cover less than sensational events outside metropolitan areas and to a lesser extent state capitals.

I think we should be careful not to overstate the efficiency of the Chinese system. After all it took the Chinese parliament about 15 years to pass a cooperate bankruptcy law because of political in-fightings and special interests. And in many other areas the Chinese central government is much less monolithic than it seems.
But the greater problem with Chinese political system, IMO, is the problem with local governments. Currently local governments don't answer to the population they govern, and they don't really answer to Beijing either ('the sky is high and the emperor is far away'). So a huge number of local governments are little more than thugocracy. So I think there is the need of improving local accountability by elections upto the subprovinical level. The Chinese empires of the past have never solved the local governance problem, and I don't expect the current Chinese government to able to solve it within an authoritarian framework.

Interesting that you talk of long run, something that India uses to justify the democratic system & rightfully so. Authoritative one party communist systems no doubt are way more efficient than something like Indian democracy, composing of multiple ethnic & religious groups. Say China overcomes the poverty & has all the necessary infrastructure by 2015. Say India is 15 years behind & achieves the same thing by 2030.
Are 15 years really worth for China for having a very poor record in terms of human rights? When you start comparing the quality of life of citizens in both countries from 2030, see what we have got. Chinese live in a one party authoritative regime, where citizens do not have most of the basic rights like real estate & everything. Indians OTOH, live in an equally developed country, and enjoy the benefits of democracy & human rights.
In short, 15 years is the price which we are paying to get the things done Indian way. And we do believe that it is worth the wait.
