         <description><![CDATA[<div>Positives of a democracy is people can voice their opinion and have a influence on who is elected. Also people can't just inherit the position and take over. If the person did a bad job in a democracy they most likely won't be reelected. A negative might be that people are divided and it could start arguments.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The positives of democracy is that there are people that can speak up and say their thoughts.&nbsp; Everyone can be heard to make the country a better place. If know one could speak except 2 people the country wouldn't be a good place because no one would be suggesting. A negative would be that people could be peer pressured or some of their friends would have different views and they could split up.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>A positive of democracy is that everyone gets a say and most of the times it it pretty fair. Also, most people are happy with they decision because it is about who gets the most votes and that means most of the people voted for the winner. A negative could be that people were influenced to make a certain decision they did not want to make, so that person ends up getting a role they do not deserve. Another negative is that not everyone will always be happy with the choice others make. The biggest part of it is that it is decided on who has majority of the votes meaning voters probably chose who is most appropriate for the role.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>There are a few Posititives of Democracy. One being that everyone is heard, opinions can be shared and new topics of discussion can be brought in. Not all the opinions will be good or agreed on as a group, but having a mix of thoughts on what the people themselves think is good for them should be taken account for. Another positive is that while not everyone will agree on a decision, it would be the most liked out of a communtiy, rather than having a single ruler make all the decisions for a community based on their own beliefs. Some Negatives of Democracy could be fights breaking out, or poor desicions being made by people with little knowledge. If a fight were to occur over an opinion, someone may get injured depending on the amount of power behind the attack. Some people might agree on a choice that could backfire because they don't have a lot of knowledge on the topic. A single ruler might be ideal if the community cannot agree on one thing.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>One of the positives of having a democracy people can voice there opinion and make there own choice on who they want to be in charge and not get in any trouble for it. A negative is democracy make stuff a little harder to get stuff done because if there was not a democracy going on in a country and they ruled in a different way then they would be able to get stuff done much more fast and efficiently because there is no one that they have to talk to or see who wants it or doesn't want it, they are just able to do stuff, but with a democracy it prevents that.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Some positives of a democracy is that it allows people to vote and share there opinion. A democracy makes sure that everybody's opinion counts and they make a huge difference in the way people live. People can say if they don't like something, when maybe a leader or something wants a certain person because it is better for them and not other people.&nbsp;Some downsides are that some people can get really mad and it can bring people apart. It can affect the way someone sees another, they might see that they don't agree with them and maybe cause a fight. Also the might discriminate against them because of their opinions.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>A plus of a democracy as a government is everyone has the choice to participate in the government. They have input the rules that are enforced on themselves. But a drawback could be that it takes longer to properly enforce a rule, and it could cause some real problems to the government if the people who vote are split into groups that agree or disagree on a matter, especially if they're the same group because then the entire government is arguing against itself. And also, if there are equal sides in a vote, who straightens things out? and if a rule is enforced that people don't like, there's no one for people to get mad at except other people who take part in the government, which wouldn't be good either.</div>]]></description>
