What is the main way a representative democracy differs from a direct democracy? citizens elect leaders who vote on the issues in a representative democracy, and citizens vote on the issues in a direct democracy. a representative democracy is modern, and a direct democracy is ancient. a representative democracy works better in small groups, and a direct democracy works better in large groups. citizens’ desires are ignored in a representative democracy, and citizens’ desires have a better chance of being heard in a direct democracy.

As bob is driving on an exit off the freeway, he comes to a stop light and sees a homeless man asking people for spare change. “see, he’s a perfect example of why we shouldn’t be giving welfare benefits to the homeless,” bob mutters to his wife. “he’s too lazy to get a job, but he’s healthy enough to beg people for their hard-earned money all day long.” what are the sample and the target in bob’s argument? are there any inductive fallacies present in bob’s reasoning (bias, hastiness, appeal to anecdotal evidence, self-selection)? if so, explain why. if not, explain why not.
