The Argument
Voting in a republic is beneficial for the public. Through a representative, people can vote to elect a government official to get the ideas and laws they support passed.[1] If the right government leaders are in place, the economy will grow and the public will have prosperous lives.
Counter arguments
Using a representative is not the best way to vote. Representatives are people elected to represent certain political groups in a country.[2] There could be aggression between the groups that cause a stalemate during the final voting process. On top of separation between groups in the public population, there’s a separation between people and the main government. This creates limits on personal interaction and makes the people think the government doesn’t care for them.
