Debatable. A society requires some level of certainty to function on a day to day basis.

People voting on laws would be like living in the stock market. Up one day down the next, based purely off sentiment, while someone skims off the top. As we've all seen, the crowd is easily manipulated and changes its mind often.

Now, what MIGHT be interesting is some type of citizen jury type concept. Somewhat randomly decided and vetted people are put in a sequestered situation and asked to come to a reasonable conclusion about a specific topic. People often step up in these types of situations and they'd specifically be given time to consider things, instead of just reading FB or watching the news.

People going about their busy lives, living off sound bites, simply don't put anywhere near the thought that people like you or I put into these things.
