Democracy is a system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives. The USA is a democratic republic where people decide who is in charge (the democratic part), then the people elected decide what to do (the republic part).

While not addressing all issues relevant to Lake County’s…

economists, the movement of a laissez-faire, neoliberalist economy in Latin America spurred forth. While it did push Chile into some economic growth, there were many unforeseen downsides to the reforms. Of these downsides came intense boom and bust cycles; one economic bust was the largest since the Great Depression (Murphy 4-17-18).

The fluctuations in the crime rate depend on the usage of crack cocaine and its markets. In “The Crime Bust,” the author elaborates on many possible causes to the unsteady rates, but only contributes to part of the downward cline (Witkin 1-4). For instance, one of the most cited causes to the crime rates, policing strategies, is not the key factor in crime reduction because it is not constant with every city. “The crime rate has also dropped precipitously in cities like Washington, D.C., where…
