Has such a system ever existed anywhere? How would citizens even have the time?

Switzerland

  • Continuously exercised and on everything as a matter of course? Not all is done via direct democracy there (even though it is the ultimate backstop in a way), it also has representative democracy.

  • You cannot compare 10 million people with 450 million people when talking about direct democracy. It cannot be done I think. But if you know a way propose it here.

    Just saying lets vote directly on everything will put everything on hold until all goes down.
