We don't have a direct democracy nor should we want one. The stock market is a type of direct democracy and look how unstable it can be.

- metadat 4y agoHardly democratic when it's controlled like a puppet by wall street super funds and the fed.
- Dracophoenix 4y agoI wouldn't call the stock market a direct democracy. In a direct democracy, every citizen/participant has the same vote as another and all it takes is simple majority can invalidate the rights of every individual. Obviously that's not the case in the US, and for the better.
