I think representative democracy is the most effective style of government because the government gives equal rights to all citizens, and they respect every single person. When you are voting, you can vote for anyone, and your vote counts toward the representatives and they vote for the president. for example, In America, all citizens can vote for representatives, and representatives vote for president. But in China, not everyone can vote. It’s fair to everyone because they gives more money to who worked more.for example, you get more money in representative democracy if you are doctor, but you get less money if you are worker, etc. You earn more money if you are doing harder jobs. These are the reasons why I think democracy is the most effective style of government.
