      I won’t call out of or the drawer for bad idea. The idea is fine. There’s just zero ways to ever implement it. It’s nice to dream though

        Ehh… I think it’s fundamentally problematic. Why should only a subset of the adult population be allowed to vote on laws that affect everyone?

          If there were a practical way to do it, a way to ensure that only those who were well informed on a topic could have a say in it wouldn’t be an issue. The only barrier to voting would be your desire to inform yourself.

          Unfortunately there isn’t, because just about every word in the above sentences can be twisted by someone with illintent.
          The concept isn’t fundamentally flawed, it’s just blocked by insurmountable obstacles.
