I don't buy into the stupid people theory. Even if so, if the masses vote for it who am I to say otherwise.
Our whole system of Dem Vs Rep, electoral college, etc is outdated. Bring the polls online like banking. People can vote for single issues without all this BS thrown in.
Thing is it's those in control that don't want that. Most work the hardest to preserve themselves and their families and what's good for everyone else comes last.
The only problem with that is you would have to have some sort of sliding scale on whose vote counts more. Otherwise states with large amounts of voters would get more say than smaller states. Still on things like going to war I think it would be a great way to do it. At least if 75% of the people vote for it they have no one to blame but themselves when it goes wrong.
