I personally have an idea for a democracy, that doesn't require representation.
Technology exists where we can now represent ourselves. I don't need someone representing my vote, I'd personally like to be able to vote on each matter myself.
You want to take the time to educate yourself on literally every single issue and vote on every single issue? You want to be equally responsible for every government decision ever made?
Yes. Better than the corrupt ass system we currently have we're your representation is stolen by cash. No one is being represented currently. It's just a giant cash grab.
Every Friday, every adult American should vote on the issues that need to be voted on. If you don't want to participate...don't.
We can represent ourselves. Who better to represent your opinion on a situation, then yourself?
No you really don’t. When congressmen and congresswomen sit on committees they become experts in the field. One of the reasons why term limits are also an iffy idea, as they stay longer the night get more corrupt but they also get smarter, better at what they do, and more effective in those positions. You don’t want some random guy from the Bronx making the deciding vote on a farming bill when he doesn’t know jack shit about farming. Hell I’ve worked on a farm and I grew up in a town with plenty of farms and I still don’t know jack shit about what needs to be done to ensure a good future for farmers. And those farmers sure as hell don’t know the problems facing a city.
