Some people said democracy is an illusion of making you think you have the power over the country. You can vote but can you ever stop a bill passing through if you don't want it to? Can you ever really make a difference in the country's decisions? You think you have the power but power is really shared by those in the government. Discuss.
 
Yes and no

yes: because it involves a certain sect of people (the elite) who are elected by us to rule for us, but often dont take any heed of our needs. Also its a battle between those who are trying to gain as much power as possible as their Gov. will allow.

No: its chosen by the people and if the people dont like the way the Gov. is running their contry they revolt.
