What is a term for a situation in which paired-choice voting by majority rule fails to produce a consistent ranking of society's
Helen [10]

Term used for a situation in which paired-choice voting by majority rule fails to produce a consistent ranking of society's preferences for public goods is the paradox of voting.

The paradox of voting, also known as Downs' paradox, states that the costs of voting usually outweigh the expected benefits for a rational, self-interested voter. Because the likelihood of exercising the pivotal vote is negligible in comparison to any reasonable estimate of the private individual benefits of the various possible outcomes, the expected benefits of voting outweigh the costs.

Responses to the paradox of voting have included the belief that voters vote to express their preference for a candidate rather than to influence the outcome of the election, that voters exercise some altruism, or that the paradox ignores the collateral benefits associated with voting that are not related to the resulting electoral outcome.

What are the advantages of a group (Congress) vs. an individual (the President) when it comes to setting policy? What are the di
brilliants [131]

The US Congress consists of 2 houses. The <em>House of Representatives</em>, with its 435 members and <em>The Senate</em>, with its 100 members.

In a decision-making process, it is always better to have more participants that could help come up with a better proposal or solution to a certain issue. When it comes to policymaking, having an organized group of individuals who will debate over the country's matters will offer you a greater probability of coming up with better policies in comparison to one single person. The President does have a group of advisors but in the end, it is only he or she which has the last word.

The Supreme Court has the power of <em>Judicial Review</em>. This means that it can invalidate a law that is passed by a Congress by the argument that it goes against a part of The Constitution. It can also invalidate an executive act from the President by considering it to be unlawful.
