Dancer has become the enemy to progression.

I'm only about 25% in to Dark Age but Dancer it's starting to feel like he's going to be the main problem. I understand why he is taking the positions that he's taking but the fact that he knows that the Ash Lord was setting a trap with the first peace treaty and now where I'm at his grand plan is to just stay on the defensive and don't go save Darrow is highlighting a problem with this democracy. When the government was ruled by a dictator you wouldn't have to deal with any of these issues however when it is ruled by a dictator the Voice of many would go unheard yet when you start giving the voice to the mini it slows down progress which honestly makes me question which form of government is the most ideal. Part of me thinks that Mustang should just take full control and say screw the Senate but at the same time that doesn't really change anything and eventually everything will wind up the exact same way it was before Darrow ever even became a gold. I'm really enjoying the fact that Pierce Brown isn't treating this complex issue as a simple black and white good and bad.
