Abstract
It is indubitable and irrefutable that democracy is the best government system that exists in the occidental world and that thanks to it, freedom of expression allows to even question it and put it on the justice balance. Similarly, bioethics born in the world of biological and health sciences, has transcended to the humanities and society has become aware that we live in a nonrenewable planet. However, we cannot overlook that both democracy and bioethics are not born from populus, but from an elite who dreams of a better world according to their dreams and not those of the vast majority of ordinary people.
