Well maybe they are putting together a better site that makes up for all of those and also enable the citizens to vote and/or give ideas where they want their money spent, or just enable the voters to keep the money if they do not have representation.

That is, I believe, the worst possible idea. "[A democracy] can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury."

  We're pretty much there. Probably 60% of the average family's spending is on housing, fuel and food. All of which are heavily subsidized.

  Sure, but he said where they want their money spent. That would kill plenty of lobbying, hopefully all of it.
