Wrong target, mao. The voting system isn't perfect but the real problem is the electorate who are both mis-educated (which is worse than ignorant) and greedy. Some say it is greedy to want to keep what you earn but I say it is greedy to demand to get what someone else earned.
Greed is the reason why we have a Republic and not a Democracy. Democracy only works until The People figure out they can vote themselves largess from the public treasury.
Unfortunately, that safety has been short-circuited by politicians who figured out they can assure their re-election by promising gifts from the treasury to 51% of the voting public.
