A system of government created by the Greeks (Greek Democracy = Direct Democracy.) In this type of Democracy, free men, who were not foreign-born, were allowed to gather and discuss issues they then voted on. Direct Democracy is much more efficient for small groups of people.
Indirect Democracy began in the Roman Republic, which followed the idea of representatives in government and introduced the separation of powers. The Judicial branch dominated by Patricians, and the Legislative by Plebeians. Indirect Democracy is efficient for large groups of people.
Democracy alone is fucking stupid. Lmao.
Say that a state was voting on whether to ban grape or strawberry jam. The strawberry has seeds and is sour; however, the grape has a greater jello constancy and spreads thicker.
"I prefer the former."
" I prefer the latter."
Some may leave it at that. Preferring the jam with seeds or without. However, one would also have to ponder the importance of such a matter. Why do we need either jam? Or why is this a concern? It is just a spread. Is there any other substitute for jam that is easier to obtain? How will this affect the animals or insects which feast on the fruit? The soil that relies on its rot? For the grass that cows feed? Who proposed this bill? Why are they doing this?
I think many people would leave it as just βgrape is better, strawberry is better and the majority gets to determine what flavor you can or can not eat. They will justify it as βfair and democratic.β
Democracy is a sensitive system; it allows for easy corruption. Mainly human impulsion, which was stressed by the greek philosopher, Plato.

A type of goverment where private property can be owned, tons of rights are given to the people, and the people pick the leader of the country. So it relies on the country's population being smart. And its rare to find a smart human
America, canada, and modern-day japan are examples of democracy countries.

Democracy is a form of government on which a country is aparently run by a few who are voted into power by a mass, we of course know this to be a lie because every form of domocratic government (including the British government)is completely corrupt. Take the EU for example, when did anyone ever get to vote on any EU 'TREATY', NEVER, only the proud Irish got a vote and the EU COMPLETELY IGNORED IT.
british government should be a Elitist monarchy
EU governemt should burn under the foot of the independant european countries
America is ok but can be a bit thick at times.
dieu et mon droit
God save the Queen
