Direct democracy: This is where everyone is given the opportunity to participate in making all policy decisions. In countries and large organizations, direct democracy is rarely utilized.
Representative democracy: This approach entails people voting to elect representatives in a free and fair electoral system to make policy for them under a wide range of checks and balances to help ensure leadership accountability.

Democracy is a political belief in which people can say what they want, dress the way they want and believe the things they want without anyone telling them that they're wrong. It's a system where people have the right to pursue happiness and have the liberty to live undisturbed by others.

A true democracy would allow every citizen to vote on every decision, basically the rule of the masses. Fortunately, our own political system is tempered with elements of a republic.

Unlimited majority rule.
If 51% vote to enslave the other 49%, that is a "true" democracy.

Mob rule or majoritarianism. Rule strictly by vote. Democracy is bad.
We have a republic, and our elections are democratic.

When every action is voted on by the people, that include building an addition, starting a business. That is why most governments are Democratic-Republics.
