I don't know why it's so hard for certain people to understand that sometimes (actual most of the time), all sides are the bad guys.

They are both bad, but one of them trades with the rest of the world. That's why most governments lean towards them.

Correction. One is a democracy, so the rest of the world trades with it.

They are hardly democratic. But at least they are much better with contracts, promises and commitments.

Democracy only lives up to it's potential when its people work for it and it seems it doesn't happen often. Sometimes we get it right.
