One common argument against democracy is that it leads to 'instability and delays'. Why is this often cited?
Correct: B
Democracy often involves extensive discussions and deliberations among various representatives, parties, and interest groups before decisions are made. This process, while ensuring wider acceptance and better decisions in the long run, can lead to delays compared to authoritarian regimes where decisions are made by a single person or small group. This 'slowness' is often cited as a criticism.
