What is your point? You want direct democracy which nothing more than a tyranny of the majority. Direct democracy was not what the framers of the United States Constitution envisioned for the nation, hence why we have a Representative Democracy. What you propose is the abandonment of rationality "which bases its claim to rule upon numbers, not upon rightness or excellence."Like what are you talking about m8. Elections the guy that gets more votes wins. It’s pretty standard practice. No one bitches about the small counties not getting a say in govenor
To break it down even further as Herbert Spencer stated so eloquently in The Right to Ignore the State " suppose, for the sake of argument, that, struck by some Malthusian panic, a legislature duly representing public opinion were to enact that all children born during the next ten years should be drowned. Does anyone think such an enactment would be warrantable? If not, there is evidently a limit to the power of a majority."
