So, one limit that I face is that most people won't read an essay on the Web if it is longer than 3,000 or maybe 4,000 words. So it is impossible for me to repeat every idea in every essay. But I did recently (this week) write suggesting a larger intermediate assembly, holding perhaps 5% of the population (the exact number doesn't matter). Please see here:

Of course, to iron out a deal, typically some leadership needs to meet, so I make the assumption that there will be some smaller, higher level assembly that allows the leadership to move quickly, especially when facing an emergency. Parliamentary systems have the distinction between the assembly and the Cabinet. But I think having a mass assembly, as an intermediate structure between the general public and the higher levels, is a great idea.
