Am I the only one who thinks this is a terrible idea? Normal people don't have the time to vote on every single issue; we have our own jobs to do. A system like this just means he'll be voting with the loudest minority for everything that comes up.
Anyone who has lived in California at some point in the past decade knows that direct democracy is a disaster. Ballot initiatives create service (and corresponding spending) increases and forbid tax hikes, leaving the elected legislature unable to balance the state budget.
Couldn't one implement some logic in the voting system based on the interdependence of bills?
"You can't vote for this service without voting for one of these bills that include a tax increase that would cover the cost of said service"?
On second thought, I can see how this would get ugly fairly quickly.
