Banning Stem Cell Research
Prohibition
Prevention of Condoms in schools.
Leading on morality does not get you those practices. That is a very general statement. Ruling on an irrational morality is what gets you those practices.

Also, there is no way one can prove that democracy will make it any better. Democracy is the rule-by-gang type of thing. That can't possibly be any better than ruling on an irrational morality...
