I thought democracy was "mob rule" and something we weren't for. At least, that's the argument I've gotten from people here whenever anyone dares to say America is a democracy. Before someone chimes in about it- Yes, I'm aware we are a Republic. A Republic is a form of Democracy.
But it seems as if President Trump is saying we live in a Democracy, and it's important that Democracy is upheld. 🤔
Technically, we are a Democratic Republic.
There is a big difference between mob rule and majority rule, and we do neither.
We have many of the facets of a democracy, including majority rule. However, we have underlying principles that the majority can never take away. A right to life and liberty, for example. That cannot be removed by the majority.
Mob rule sounds similar to majority rule, but it isn't. Mob rule does not require a majority of the population, only a group large enough to force/bully the rest into capitulation.
We are a constitutional Republic. Not a Democratic Republic.
Clarification correct. Thanks you!
And a Republic is a Representative Democracy. As opposed to a Direct Democracy.
Instead of everyone voting on each and every law we want to be passed (or opposed), we vote for people to represent us in making those laws. Such as governors, mayors, senators, and presidents, etc....
Actual democracies turn into tyrannies. It seems as though our constitutional republic did, also. We have some thinking to do. But getting rid of usury in our monetary system will go a long way toward diminishing the need for desperation and force.
