War on Terrorism is just another Capitalism versus Socialism war.

No, it's not. Getting a large number of people to agree on something is incredibly difficult and time consuming. Nothing would get done. There's a reason the "Founding Fathers" made the US a republic and not a full democracy like you have right there. It's finding the right balance between granting freedom for the people and power for the government.

Not sure I follow. This is not a new idea. Today we have thousands of mayor's and county commissioner's with budgets. They would do what they do today, they would just have a much larger pot of money, and more responsibility.

But they aren't "linked together", so to speak, for the purposes of making decisions about the nation. They each make decisions about their own areas and not of a much larger nation. Some people think the wait for things to get done in Congress is bad, it'd be much, much worse with 10,000 people trying to come to a single decision.

 

Not to say it's impossible, it's just there's a more effective way.
