A representative democracy is still a democracy.
- sjijhsio5 10y agoThat's technically true (the best kind of true) -- a representative democracy is a republic --, but the problem that the poster was pointing at was that the people are not being actually represented by our elected representatives.
- imaginenore 10y agoIs it? When was the last time anybody asked you whether your country should go to war? Or how to spend your taxes? Finding a representative that you agree with on most (let alone all) issues is pretty much impossible.
