Question

Citizens and the media today often frown on congressional deliberations and government's slow pace. What might the Founders argue about the slow pace of government?

Answer 1

Answer:

Slow decision making process and policy implementation is a characteristic of democratic forms of governance. Though it might appear to the citizens and media as unnecessary disadvantage, it allows American government to make more educated decisions, take into account the interests of various groups and work out the optimal solutions to the problems.  

In such a large country as the United States these process would be considerably slower than in democracies with smaller population and territory, like many European states.
