Democracy, to me, is how people in a government act and help the government. Democracy is supposed to be fair to all the people in America. This is not true because dosn't Donald Trump have more of a meaningful opionion, to people in the world, than a woman growing up in the projects of Brooklyn. This may be because Trump applied himself, but he was given the opurtunity to, many people are not and therefore cannot try to succed. Many politicians try to have people like MR. Trump on their side, because they can supply money and power to them. If democracy is fair, then why do some people get treated unfair and why does a President get elected by the number of electroral college votes, and not popular vote. Is this because people in the White House do not think that the public can handle this task? They give them the power to vote, but what does it mean. If this is a country based on majority wins, then why does it only apply to certain times. It does not apply to laws, this is left up to the House and Senate to decide. Those same senators are elected by the people that agree with them, so when they are in the Senate they no longer care about the people that voted for them. Im sure they care to a degree, but on every topic they are not thinking of those people. If they change their beliefs, the community can't have a vote on wheter to get rid of them. So does the people's feelings only matter when the government needs to change power which it is required to have a re-election. Why do people get sent to jail and sometimes convicted of a crime they did not commit? The investagators may have some evidence, but sometimes they do not have it all. Is it fair to say that that more money leads to more power? People with more money should be looked at as rolemodels, not intimadators. Now don't get me wrong, many poeple with money do great tasks in the world, but do they do enough to the standards that they could? The point can also be made that most medium wage families can do more to help their communities. Then you get down to those people in Brookyln, should they be looked at as people that should be held to a lesser value than Mr. Trump, just because of power and money. Or is this just because they were not as fortunate as Mr. Trump to have the ability to achieve big goals. I belive the core of the decision would come out to be power and money. Does this this state the fact that more power and money equals more recognition. It is all about the money in America, ever since finally acquirering Hawaii because it benefited the U.S. Now it is about the money and how people are seen with it. I believe every American is guility of these traits.
