Democracies can be many things, but I wouldn't consider Denmark, who has had so many referendums lately, undemocratic. And now we're going to have another referendum. There are many people in Denmark that think, that we should use our indirect democracy more and the direct democracy less, in order to reduce the number of questions that the parliament let people decide. I'm one of them. Democratic decisions always turn into bureacracy. Just think of the amount of money spent on the decision "who's going to be president of the U.S.A."? And compare this with the amount of money spent on hiring a new president for a big company (remember, companies are inherently undemocratic, which makes them effective). Additionally I wouldn't consider a system with less than 80% of adult voting, a real democracy. I'm glad I'm living in a country, where less than 10% of all adults don't bother to vote. Comparing Italy to the rest of Europe is like comparing Mexico to California. I don't judge USA by the government in Mexico, you shouldn't do that either.
