That is another kind of anarchy, hocchan. It is called "democracy," which literally means "mob rule."

Democracy does not equal anarchy no matter how one can construe the words that it is constructed from.

It does not, but it can become it quite quickly and easily, which is what wound up happening in ancient Greece eventually.

A democracy is where people as an entire populace vote on every single issue. Obviously, after achieving a certain population size, this becomes ineffective. A republic solves this problem by electing representatives who represent the larger population to vote on the different issues.
