I could see scaling being a problem. For this to work I think you would need enough representatives that different segments of the society would consistently have their concerns represented. However, I'm not sure that would be viable with a country as large and diverse as the US. The lottery system would also likely work best when the representatives knew that they would be held accountable socially for their actions. However, that likely requires a more localized society, greater shared worldview, and less inequality that we currently have in America. I could see a lottery system working at the state or local level. However, it seems like most of the issues that society is currently facing (climate change, inequality, etc.) are ones that can only be solved at a national level.
