I follow what he's saying here, but I'm not particularly convinced that democracy is a good system from its foundation.

There seem to be three options ahead of us:

1. Try to go back into history to improve the present. (I genuinely don't think that is possible. The conditions that existed in the past were unique and they are gone.)

2. Continue doing what we are doing now. (Obviously a poor choice)

3. Create some third new option that has not been seen before. (I think this is our best option)

As I see it if a government operates on sound money it will inherently limit it's size and power. As a result, voting will be much less important by extension. It doesn't matter how hard you vote, the laws of physics and thermodynamics are not going to change.

To me that's really the first step forward. It seems a bit nieve to me at times when I head people say 'fix the money fix the world', but I would absolutely say that nothing will improve until the money is fixed... So I tend to focus there more than trying to change laws.

Any political action at this point feels like rearranging furniture on the Titanic.
