Even though democracy in theory must be something almost completely free of influence, all the influence of the people who have more power in society is still great, and it increases as social inequality grows
In situations where the population is in favor of deconcentrating income and wealth, this will has not found support in the political arena. On the one hand, there are those who insist on denying the problem, stating that the growth of social inequality does not produce adverse effects for society; on the other, there are those who declare that nothing can be done about the matter, since the culprits would be the <u>“market forces”</u>, neutral and impersonal economic mechanisms.

In my opinion I think U.S president today have less power if they could have than before. The presidents back then would hold office until retirement or until death. Today they can hold office for only two terms for which each is four years long. They still cannot make decisions on their own they need the approval of the two other governing branches. I think the framers of the constitution would be satisfied knowing this is so and that the constitution has been something that has been used to base off democracy appropriately.

past to the present century. People have been more digital and electronic, the “wireless
era”. Unlike the technology of the late 1800’s to early 1900’s it’s a tough and
took them a colossal step to actually use the existent device/s during this
age. With the turn of the 21st century, from trains, cars,
airplanes, to telephones, computers, and the most influential technology ever
developed yet is the turn of the internet which significantly boosted the urban
and cosmopolitan growth. How? In the sense of faster and wireless technology,
it promoted urban growth in many aspects –communication, locale and global
services, demands, industrialization, business and trade, and even people’s
lives through transportation, accessibility and ease of use. In the old days,
even letters and courier parcels takes days to be received, months and years to
travel and business was limited in the course of trade. It seemingly made all
the tedious processes of the early centuries to now at one touch to ripple at a
larger scale.</span>
