Corruption follows power. Right now, lawyers have the power and they are some of the most corrupt motherfuckers on planet Earth. They wage wars with weapons of words, written, spoken, or published. They argue professionally. It's how they make law, it's how they get votes.
Switching up to digitized democracy is only going to make lawyers less corrupt (less influence, less cash) and transfer that directly to the software/network/internet world profession. Fuck, you think electronic attacks are high now? How about if it dictated law?
Even if you could have bulletproof security, this is also the same nation that made "Jersey Shore" a hit. The masses are dumb-asses, I'm tired of watching them elect worthless shitbags.

She's right, I can go out and buy a gun right now if I wanted to, but try to buy a vagina and it's all "prostitution is illegal" and "sex slavery is wrong" and shit.
I agree with Shannyn Moore that prostitution and human sex trafficking should be legalized!

And, the new thing going around is instead of saying "gun control," which sounds all mean and controlling, you say GUN SAFETY because hey... who doesn't like safety?  Even though it amounts to the same thing.
Pay attention. That phrase is in the wild.

NRA defends ad asking why Obama thinks his kids should be protected by guns, while your kids shouldn't.
The White House's response:
I agree. People who use children in political fights are "repugnant and cowardly"...

The White House called the ad “repugnant and cowardly” and criticized the organization for using the president’s children as “pawns in a political fight.”

							There are over four million members in the NRA today. They've been successful in brainwashing some of their members through foolhardy rhetoric and propaganda. As a result, gun sales have exponentially soared throughout the nation.
