I posted the link to the news about the study. Read it yourself. Answering to that you have representative democracy is just being smart ass or stupid. Either way, it has nothing to do with that study.
USA has so sucky kind of democracy that:
"Americans do enjoy many features central to democratic governance, such as regular elections, freedom of speech and association and a widespread (if still contested) franchise.
But we believe that if policymaking is dominated by powerful business organisations and a small number of affluent Americans, then America's claims to being a democratic society are seriously threatened."
At some point it is viable to say that it isn't democracy, any kind of.
