Unless I am mistaken US and most European countries are based on Democracy.
Wikipedia defines Democracy as a form of government in which all eligible citizens have an equal say in the decisions that affect their lives.

Well in my personal opinion it does, therefore I should be informed about it.

From this chart I see that US is categorized under Full Democracy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Democracy_Index_2012_green_and_red.svg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Democracy_Index_2012_gree... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Index https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Index https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy
