Voting should be frequent and for issues only. Officials should only be administrators.

Voting should be frequent and for issues only. Officials should only be administrators.
Why do we elect and allow a person who promises one thing to end up delivering another? The term of office is long enough that the elected official will be deciding issues that the voter and official never even considered during the election. If voting was used for deciding the will of the people on issues and administrators/managers were hired to implement the wishes of the voters, perhaps the world would be a better place.

Allowing "representatives" to effectively veto a vote of the people is pretty fucked up.

All matters that effect the voters should be subject to an open vote of the people.

Go back to school and research the difference between a democracy and a republic.

A democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting for lunch.

Nice idea, but it would quickly devolve into a form of mob rule.

If we stay a republic, why do you think a form of mob rule would occur?

There is NO republic.
There is NO democracy.
There is NO govt at all.
America is a corporation.

Search for YOUR city, county, state.
YOUR local police dept, fire dept, etc.
They are ALL private companies.

I agree. All that stuff they vote on in Congress should actually be a public vote of the ppl.
