Imagine your class is going to put together a class party. Together, you need to decide how to raise funds, what food to get, ho
w to decorate the classroom, what music to play, and so on. You can either have every student in class vote on each of these decisions (as in a democracy), or elect a Party Planning Committee, which would be a few student representatives who would make all the decisions for the rest of the class (like in a republic). Which method would you prefer and why?
