Why might indirect democracy be better for a large population

History
1 answer:
alexira [117]2 years ago
7 0

Every day, the US Congress makes thousands of decisions.  

In a direct Democracy, the citizenry would need to all be involved in each of these decisions. There are so many, that it would basically turn into a full time job for all citizens.

So, to allow for the majority of people to engage in trade or commerce, indirect democracy allows the election of representatives who act on behalf of the citizenry.

Which house of Congress has the same number of votes no matter what size the state is?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

The Senate

Explanation:

In the Sherman Compromise of 1787, it was decided that the House would have proportional representation, while the Senate would have two senators regardless of the state size.

This compromise was significant in that it determined the bicameral  congressional system that we have today.

<u>Prior to the compromise, two plans were proposed:</u>

The New Jersey Plan favored smaller states by proposing equal representation in Congress.

- Smaller States thought they had equal status as a state

On the other hand, the Vlrginia Plan favored more populous states by proposing proportionate representation.

- Larger States thought that it would give citizens of smaller states unfair political influence
