America was founded to protect its people, from corruption, war, and chaos. The reason that we have the U.S government so spanned out is because if one branch ruled over the United States then we would turn into a monarchy or even a tyranny. The advantage is that we do not have to worry about having a coup anytime soon. The disadvantage is that it takes a very long time to get a new law passed, first it has to go through all of the branches, and if the Legislative branch doesnt like it then you have to re-do the whole process again.
