Checks and Balances
The system of checks and balances is an important part of the Constitution. With checks and balances, each of the three branches of government can limit the powers of the others. This way, no one branch becomes too powerful. Each branch “checks” the power of the other branches to make sure that the power is balanced between them. How does this system of checks and balances work?
The process of how laws are made (see the following page) is a good example of checks and balances in action. First, the legislative branch introduces and votes on a bill. The bill then goes to the executive branch, where the President decides whether he thinks the bill is good for the country. If so, he signs the bill, and it becomes a law.
If the President does not believe the bill is good for the country, he does not sign it. This is called a veto. But the legislative branch gets another chance. With enough votes, the legislative branch can override the executive branch's veto, and the bill becomes a law.
Once a law is in place, the people of the country can test it through the court system, which is under the control of the judicial branch. If someone believes a law is unfair, a lawsuit can be filed. Lawyers then make arguments for and against the case, and a judge decides which side has presented the most convincing arguments. The side that loses can choose to appeal to a higher court, and may eventually reach the highest court of all, the Supreme Court.
If the legislative branch does not agree with the way in which the judicial branch has interpreted the law, they can introduce a new piece of legislation, and the process starts all over again.

Political parties are fundamental pieces for political plurality. In modern democracies, parties have become the gears of political conflict, generate it, contain it and, as the case may be, solve it. The opportunities for electoral participation have been framed by the decision of the parties and, to this extent, questions such as political culture depend on the perception of the citizenship on the partisan environment. We also see that after choosing representatives of the people, a very important tool that people have is to write to them or show their inclinations to certain projects by different trucks, such as a letter, a note in a newspaper or magazine or through internet pages.
Generally speaking, in a cost-benefit analysis done by a government, “cost” is defined as the negative aspect of what will happen if the government decides to go through with whatever they're debating. It's what the government will lose as a result of this action.
