The executive branch is left intact, the judicial branch is left intact. The only change is - instead of representatives people vote themselves to approve or kill the bills in the legislative branch. All checks and balances are there.

A one way trip to dictatorship. No thanks.

Real reform needs to include all three branches. The judiciary is a political body with no political accountability. All judges should be elected.

1) Not everyone can sit down 24 hours a day studying bills. That’s why we have elected representatives in the first place. People who have jobs don’t have time to make informed decisions on legislation. So that leaves us with unemployed people who often are that way for a reason.

2)There isn’t always good internet connectivity in all areas of the country, especially in rural areas, also known as areas where people have jobs, also known as “Red country”.

But other than that, yes, let’s run our government like an online poll. What could possibly go wrong there?
