Abstract
I provide a novel argument in favour of majority rule. In particular, I consider the distribution of voter satisfaction in response to the outcome of a vote and prove that under certain conditions majority rule minimizes the level of inequality present in the distribution of voter satisfaction. This finding is reinforced by a computer simulation as well as an analysis of over four decades of polling data. Results complement existing procedural justifications of majority rule, demonstrating that majority rule ensures equality at the level of both procedure and outcome.

不平等和多数统治

摘要
我提出了赞成多数统治的新颖论点。特别是,我考虑了投票结果对选民满意度的分布,并证明在某些条件下多数制可以将选民满意度分布中存在的不平等程度降到最低。通过计算机仿真以及对过去四十年来轮询数据的分析,这一发现得到了加强。结果补充了多数人规则的现有程序论证,表明多数人规则可确保程序和结果水平上的平等。
