Would the U.S government be better if it were a more direct democracy?
blagie [28]

Answer:

I don't know...call me crazy, but I don't think this would be such a bad idea (at least sometime in the future.)  With the advent of the internet, there really is no reason why people can't have more input on legislation.  Remember, congressmen act as representatives of the people for logistical reasons.  Were voting allowed via internet, mail, or permanent polling places, the logistical roadblocks are reduced.

This country has an annoying quality where senators and representatives are elected and then inject their own personality into their voting.  They are supposed to represent the people of their district.  If 60% of the people in their district feel a certain way about an issue, why is the congressman/woman allowed to vote a different way?  Why do their personal beliefs really matter at all?  They are supposed to be voting the way their district wants regardless of what they personally believe.

I know, I know, things can be horribly complicated and the average person can't possibly understand all the issues they are voting on, but last I checked their is no intelligence requirement to be in the government...many people in governement now are dumb as a box of rocks.  They don't have to be smart to be elected, they have to be personable and have good advisors working in the background.

Imagine being able to directly vote on education issues, warfare issues, and being able to prioritize budget items.  Instead of blaming the morons in congress we would only be able to blame ourselves when things went horribly wrong.  Of course, some form of standing governement would still be needed for a lot of reasons.

Again, I know the technology is not hot enough right now to provide the secruity that would be needed, etc, but it won't be long...

Andrew Jackson was the first president to forcefully assert the idea that the president rather than Congress should take the lea
Yuri [45]

Answer:

True. As a former US Lawyer, Senator and the 7th President of the United States of America, Andrew JAckson championed this idea of the president bieng incharge of the national policy issues rather than leaving it in the hand of the Congress.

<em>He is known as the peoples president due to the series of policies he initiated like the support of individual liberty, the policy that caused the forced migration of the native Americans etc.</em>

<em>His use of the veto power is also another way which he demonstrated the idea that the president rather than congress should take the lead in national policy issues. </em>A typical example is the bill on the bill through Congress to re-charter the second bank of America (institution) which he vetoed (the rejection of the bill) because it encourages the advancement of the few individual at the expense of other citizens.

Studies show that young children often falsely report abuse, probably due to over-active imaginations.?
oee [108]

Answer: It can be seen different ways.

Explanation: Young children do have over-active imaginations sometimes, but I think you can also see it like they haven't been taught about abuse. Parents decide to wait and teach kids abut abuse because they want to keep their child protected. This can actually end in more damage then you think. It's really up for you to decide what you think about it. Please mark brainliest!
