Is the parliamentary system more stable during political stress than US government?
I have often wondered about this too. The American form of government is not for everyone. It has been and always will be based on trust in each and every political party adhering to The Constitution. A 200 some odd year old document that clearly defines each aspect of government. From how old a congressman must be, where the president can be born and of course our Bill of Rights. Since the rules are clearly written down, adhered to and impossible to overcome I must say stability is on the American side. After watching the last election in the UK and the "negotiations" between what I would consider complete political opposites, Lib Dems and the Torries, I once again believe in times of instability knowing who, what and when something is going to happen is reassuring. Our Constitution also clearly defines what happens when there is a tie between presidential contenders. It has happened. Once. So, as long as the rules are followed, laws aren't broken or even if laws are broken we have a document to go to for those answers too, like in the 2000 election. The UK system with 5 year plans, NHS and virtual representation seems too ambiguous to me. But that's just me. We have more than 2 months to figure out who has won an election. In the UK, you're out the next day. Doesn't appear to be a system that imparts confidence in what will happen and that someone is in charge.

- ^^^^Why would you waste someones times like that? Nobody cares for your family answer questions next time or don't even bother coming back here.
Here is what I found online that may be useful
-When the Senate ceases to engage nominees in meaningful discussion of legal issues, the confirmation process takes on an air of vacuity and farce, and the Senate becomes incapable of either properly evaluating nominees or appropriately educating the public.
Do citizens have power to change government in Saudi Arabia?
Saudi Arabia is a kingdom, and the king is extremely powerful. Citizens have very little power to make significant changes to government. The monarchy in Arabia is substantially different from the monarchies in The United Kingdom or Spain, for example. In those countries the Crown retains a few powers and privileges, but they are used sparingly. The royal systems there are largely ceremonial.
Who makes the decisions in the government with dictatorship?
It's probably not quite as simple as this but the Dictator dictates & everyone else does what they are instructed to do. Benevolent Dictatorship has much to offer as a means of government, providing the benevolence is measurable to the populace. Having said that Dictators as a whole seem to have been very unbeneviolent in history, so I am not expecting a clamour of agreement !
