The response stating "The U.S. cabinet is more effective than the British cabinet because its members are elected" is not an accurate critique of the effectiveness of the U.S. cabinet compared to the British cabinet. In both systems, the cabinet members are not elected, but appointed by the executive branch leader. Therefore, this response does not provide a valid comparison of effectiveness between the two cabinets.
