CLOSING STATEMENT: The democratic government is a form of government where the people have power through the elected representatives. In the past, dictators proven to be ruthless leaders. Even though not all of them may be terrible, a majority of them are, and they demonstrate the lack of mercy they have for innocent people. In a democracy the people have rights and they are judged equally and fairly.

ARGUMENT #3: A final reason as to how a democratic government is better than a dictatorship is that a dictatorship usually never lasts very long. Most of the time the leader does not step down from power until he/she is overthrown in which their position is forcefully taken away from them. For instance, in Guatemala, the leader was blackmailed into stepping down from power. This shows that the people would do anything to make their leader step down if he/she are not helping the country. As a result, these examples show that a democracy is much better than a dictatorship.

You have supported us by saying that in the past, a dictatorship has not always worked out. There are many more failures than successes, so what's to say there won't be any more failures, worse failures? As for being hypocritical, a democracy gives the people human rights as for who they want to represent them, a dictatorship does not even give the citizens a choice. We are not being hypocritical in any way.

Dictators may want to keep their country in control by advising harsh laws and punishments but they end up hurting the citizens in the process.

In a dictatorship, the ruler forces himself into power, which is worse than having a high corruption rate because when the citizens are bribed or threatened into voting for the ruler, it is then considered a dictatorship because he is forcing himself into power.

ARGUMENT #1: Democracy is better than dictatorship because a dictator forces himself/herself into power without the opinions of the citizens of the country. But in a democracy, the people have a say to whom they would like to represent their country. North Korea, for example, is a dictatorship, and their ruler forced himself into power without the consent of the citizens, and no one is liking how things are being run, except for the dictator. This is why democracy is known to be a greater government over dictatorship.
