    Every nation is run by both. That’s why the U.S. government was set up to have checks and balances. Clearly it’s not perfect, but no system is. At the end of the day, it’s a nation’s people that ultimately decide how their government behaves, even if that’s by apathy.

      It’s not always a fair or balanced system though, some examples include the electoral college and voter disenfranchisement.
