Why was my question removed from Yahoo answers?

About a month ago I asked a general question regarding democracy. I used a fair argument to support my thesis that democracy is endangered by business interests. There was an implicit criticism of mass-media enterprises and big businesses in my question, but I did not, as I recall, name names or libel anybody. In addition, I received much agreement in the seven answers posted. Since then, Yahoo has removed the entire question from the boards. Anybody care to suggest a reason?

This is all that is left of my original question:

Does democracy work? Can it be saved from the vested interests?

    If that old, you probably did not pick the best answer and during voting "no best answer" was picked. When that happens, the question and answers are removed.

    You may have made someone mad or they just removed it from lack of response.
