Quote:Stop talking like an idiot.
Seriously.
That is exactly what happens in most republics, for better and worse.
In my own country, given voter turnout in the 60 to 65 percentile range, every four f*****ing years
a minority of the population (35-40% is a minority) sets the political agenda by virtue of whom they elect, or don't.
This isn't even math: it is arithmetic.

Did it occur to you that I was talking about the majority of *representatives*, or even *voters*, not the majority of the *population*? Or are you just so very eager to find something to nitpick so you can pick yet another fight with me?
