This is where you are wrong. We at INEGroup are saying pretty much
that the membership should have the opportunity to vote on issues of
broad policy. And we are over 98k members.

Again you are wrong here as well. Just look at our own current US
system. FOr the most part it is captured by special interests precisely
because in part it is a representative model. Those representatives
mostly represent "Special Interests". This is not all bad, but it is none
the less, true.
