Why is direct democracy impractical in the United States today

History

Finger [1]3 years ago
8 0

The main reason why direct democracy would be impractical in the United States today, as opposed to it being utilized in Ancient Greece, is because the population is much larger, and it would be impossible to get legislation passed.

Explanation:

Direct democracy needs a vote against every proposal. In a town of 600 people or so, it's not difficult to make this. Greater than this, governments begin demanding committees and activities and branches, which makes direct democracy cumbersome. This is why governments exist.it's impossible because the U.S is a large country, and that makes it elected democracy.

Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

1. The central idea of this text is that the United States was justified in annexing Texas. The author supports this in his statement, "Imbecile and distracted, Mexico never can exert any real governmental authority over  such a country." The writer here means that only the United States had the true rights to rule over Texas.

2. Yes, according to this document, the United States was right in going into war with Mexico. The speaker in the text strongly justifies the annexation of Texas by the United States because he believes that a country like Mexico lacked what it took to preside over Texas. He also believed that it was the manifest destiny of the United States approved by God for them to expand their territory to accommodate their growing population.
