What are some advantages of a republic government?

Answer 1

The disadvantages for the republic government is we can vote for people to represent us on day to day issues. If America was a true democracy, then everyone would vote on the state and federal budget, and the names of Post Offices. So to try to achieve a better level of effectiveness and progress, we have a republic, where we elect representatives to go make decisions for us.

The downside to that is that politicians can lie to us or mislead us as to their views. They can also be bought off by special interests, drowning out the voices of the masses.

So, neither is a perfect system, but there you have it.

Answer 3

Not that many. Before the real power went to the Governments and Parliaments, the main risk was that the hereditary system of a royal House would produce someone who was totally unsuited for the job or who could purely by his own actions drag his country into war. In today's constitutional monarchies that cannot happen anymore and a monarch's job today is largely ceremonial.

The basic argument against monarchy usually is that when all public offices are filled on the basis of elections or (hopefully)after careful assesment of the candidate's aptitude and qualifications, is is illogical that the very highest public office should be filled purely on the basis of birth.

Other 'disadvantages' mentioned usually concern the high cost of having a king (sometimes true, but there are inexpensive monarchies like Norway against high-cost presidencies like France and the USA) and the 'perks' and pomp that the job entails - but here also, that goes for a number of elected presidents too.

Answer 6

What if 51% are bad and 49% are good then 49% of the people have a bad leader, bad laws, and violence in every coroner.
