The major difference between a democratic government and a totalitarian government is crucial to understanding human nature. In a democratic government its most central idea is that adults are the better judges of what is in their best interests. This is predicated on the availability of accurate information available to the general public. The center theme of a totalitarian government is that the government is a better judge of what is beneficial of its own citizens.Clearly the former idea makes common sense. Governments that believe they know what is best for its citizens flies in the face of all common sense.

In totalitarianism the government rules everything, public and private. Democratic thinking is when the people of the country or state have a voice in decisions regarding political aspects.
