The United States uses the representative democracy because it would be hard to make everyone vote on every issue so they let the people vote for reps to vote for them. It gives more power to the people.
A Representative Democracy is where the people can vote freely and decide who they want to repersent them. A Direct Democracy is where the people make there own choices.

A direct democracy is a democracy where everyone votes on everything. A representative democracy is where we vote for the people we want to represent us in making decisions.
We have a representative democracy because our population is really big so voting for the people we want to represent us is a more affective way to vote. We don't have a direct democracy because it would take too long and be too complicated for everyone to vote on everything.
A Direct Democracy is a form of government in which the citizens of the country would vote directly for someone to hold office. An example of this would be if every citizen of the United States voted on every government issue. This idea is simply unrealistic for a country as large as the United States which is why we use the form of government called Representative Democracy. In a Representative Democracy the citizens of the country vote for a smaller group of citizens to represent them in voting on government issues. This form of government is much more practical for a large country like the united states because while the people are still allowed the right to vote, they instead vote for those who they think will well represent then. It then becomes much simpler when only a select few have to vote on all government issues.

A Direct Democracy is when all the people make the decisions. And a represenatative democracy is when the people vote on officials to make the decisions for us.

A Representative Democracy- is a democracy that has people running for a title and the people vote and there votes go through goverment officials and they come to a conclusion based on the peoples votes. A Direct Democracy-is a democracy that the people in person go to discuss things like new laws to the goverment.
