"Let's place very important decisions in the hands of people who are easily manipulated – and then try to prevent highly motivated parties from manipulating these people. Or rather, let's just pressure somebody else into solving this for us. Somehow."

Just as the rise of mass media enabled the present day democracies, the rise of global internet acess is likely to eventually phase them out – and enable something new.
