Dear all!
Although we use the term "direct semocracy", I
believe that there is consensus among most of us that, for practical reasons, it
is not possible to decide every single issue by direct individual vote. As I see
it, such vote should be only used for the establishment of general lines and for
the election of representatives. For matters of routine, the representatives
should be allowed to make decisions themselves, but within the framework of the
general lines. To be exact, we should speak about "semi-direct" democracy. This
is also the standpoint of Senator Gravel.
With my best
regards
Jiri Polak
