- bsbechtel 11y agoDirect democracy with one vote for one person is fine, until the majority starts voting to infringe on the minority's rights.
- hwstar 11y agoThe "Opulent Minorities" rights should be balanced with mob rule. Unfortunately in the US today, the Opulent Minority decides the laws for the rest of us, unless there is nearly unanimous dissent.
- bsbechtel 11y agoI wasn't necessarily referring to just the "Opulent Minorities", i.e. the rich unless you are referencing something else I'm not understanding. There are plenty of examples where mob rule overruns the rights poor/disenfranchised minorities too.
