Affirmative

In a meritocracy, leaders would be chosen based on their expertise, experience, and proven ability to solve problems, not simply because they are popular or can win votes. This ensures that those in positions of power are not only more qualified but also more likely to make informed, rational decisions that benefit society as a whole.

Negative

Democracy gives everyone a voice, ensuring diverse perspectives are represented, which might be lost in a meritocratic system.
