They made sure America was not and could not be a democracy.
oh, well maybe you're going by 18th century language
but by modern parlance, there's different kinds of democracy
the oldest kind is direct democracy
athenian democracy
which you have to specifically cite so that people know what you mean
in the 18th century, most countries were monarchies, they only knew about ancient greek democracy, and the italian city states weren'
really democracies by modern definition either
but they were republics, so that's different - and in 18th century, they thought of it as different too
even so, the definition of democracy has stretched in modern times, and modern language understands it as such
you can't keep using old language
just because you're conservative
things change regardless
Democracy comes from latin. Demos Kraten =People To Rule The rule of the people.
its a vague and ecompassing definition
like nation state
or govt
Sksksksksks and i oop
why
tho
good
Based
The important thing is that is enough people could be convinced to want something they could take anything away from people for example. Republic is about having a procedure after the vote to help make it a fairer system less susceptible to any type of tyranny.
Really a best of three or something would probably be the best.
i know there's rules and restrictions
direct, or absolute democracy isn't the system of most countries
a country isn't only defined as democratic
Yes but it can always become absolute, this is a problem.
usually in modern language, when they say "We need more democracy" they are usually talking about giving more voice for the people
which I'm fine - of course, it depends on context, eg. how they go about it
I'd say we need more Republic.
more stasis?
more resistance to change?
how about lowering the govt budget
lol
a high govt budget is not capitalism btw
i dunno where you got that idea
No I don't agree with the Fedral system and the Federal Reserve killing the Republic and proper Competitive Free Enterprise.
by raising inflation
The Federal Reserve is a cancer on the American Republic.
