...Huh? You want to be personally consulted before any law comes into effect?
- krisoft 6mo agoWhy not. Doesn’t sound that crazy.
- antonvs 6mo agoThat’d be direct democracy, which is not such a bad idea. E.g. in Switzerland, citizens can propose constitutional changes, challenge parliamentary laws, and some decisions automatically go to vote. Citizens of California can pass laws directly, amend the constitution, and recall elected officials. Probably the biggest reason we don’t have more of that is that people in power typically see it as a threat.
