That's just it America isn't a democracy. We are a democratic republic. Our ancestors knew that giving people direct democracy wasn't trust worthy because people don't know enough. As you've demonstrated by not knowing one of the simplest things about this country. Now imagine millions and millions of people as uneducated as your are about ourgovernment directly voting on things? We'd quickly lose everything we've gained in this country.
