Fine, I'll take their system over ours. Ours is a system that masquerades as one that listens to the people but continues to pass half ### measures that produce adverse outcomes.

A direct democracy is what Switzerland has as well. Most power in America resides with bureaucrats who Americans don't vote for.

You know what all those countries have in common? They’re tiny.

I don’t know how you can think a direct democracy can work in a country of 330M people.

You don’t think half arse measures would get passed here if a direct democracy was implemented? How naive

The average American isn’t very well informed on most anything.

And there are tons of instances of shitty monarchies throughout human history. Lol “good bloodline”. Wtf is that even supposed to mean? Just because the parents can be good a king and queen, that means their descendants all will be? What are you? From the 15th century?

And yet you want a monarchy whose family nobody voted for
