The People Have The Control
While all democracies are built off of the principle that the people are in power, this isn’t always the case when you have elected officials making all of the decisions. With a direct democracy the people have direct power, hence the name. They have the ability to cast votes that will actually impact the way things run.
2. More Information Must Be Made Available
Since the people must be more informed about the small details of all issues, the government must provide them with information that would not have been available for everyone to view before. The reason this would need to be done is so that the voters can make fully educated decisions.
