reminded me of an article I read on bbc news about the Swiss people deciding everything through referendum. the article was about them voting for a guaranteed wages which the government would pay if they where out of work. cant find the exact article but did find a description of there country. Part of it says this
"The people are given a direct say in their own affairs under Switzerland's system of direct democracy, which has no parallel in any other country.
They are invited to the polls several times a year to vote in national or regional referendums and people's initiatives. Constitutional proposals and major international treaties must be put to the vote, and parliamentary decisions can be subjected to a vote by collecting 50,000 signatures."

correct me if I am wrong
stop me if I am bias
I love a good civilised debate (but only if we can learn something).
