Best Answer

The United States is a democracy, A government by the people, exercised either directly or through elected representatives. It values the principles of social equality and respect for the individual. Although it is not without problems, it's concept and development continues to grow and also continues to attrack individuals and their families from all over the globe.

It is just unfortunate, that a few within it continue to dwell on the past instead of acknowleding the accommplisments made through of such a diverse population. Democracy in its purist form will continue to develop in the United States as individuals develop a common purpose, common cause mentality; learning from the past, putting it aside, and moving on to the future for the benefit of all.

No

Autocracy is government by a single person having unlimited power.

Dictatorship is the form of government in which absolute power is exercised by a dictator (usually a despot).

Monarchy is also supreme power held by a single person.

Therefore "dictatorship" and "monarchy" are a form of "autocracy" and not the way round you asked the question.

No. In an autocracy, there's unlimited powers for just one person. America is a republican country where people retain supreme control over the government.

The US policy against dictatorships has not been consistent. The US has supported dictatorships and it has overthrown them. Generally, when the US opposes dictatorships it generally opposes them on one of three grounds:The system of rule is non-democratic and, therefore, unfair to its citizens.The dictatorship blatantly disregards human rights.The dictatorship has embraced some political ideology such as Communism or Islamism that US opposes.If you have a specific case in mind, please resubmit the question clarifying what that case is.
