Is it good?

Take the epistocratic pill.

It's not strictly monarchical but there is a good argument here for an aristocracy.

He explains why Democracy and increasing the franchise is bad. He argues that a form of epistocracy would perform better and I think he also argues that this form of government was the intention of the founding fathers but I may be confusing this book with another called The Myth of the Rational Voter which is also worth a read.
