At this point I don't know if you're trolling or being wilfully dull.
Yes, what you're describing is democracy. Yes, the premise of the system is that the majority vote decides on the rules/policy. Yes it would be bad if that were subverted.
But, for like the billionth time now:
- this is not what just happened with the NYC vote, and
- it has absolutely nothing to do with the American Revolution.
If you're still somehow confused, I suggest reading up on these topics - Wikipedia [0][1] provides a wonderful start.
