Electronic democracy - restoring freedom through referendum (giving individuals choice in policy)

The following is a proposal for an Electronic democracy - restoring freedom through referendum (giving individuals choice in policy):
  • open politics [centralised electronic database of all policy - allows voting on individual policies (mini referendums) - allows international comparisons] - removes politicians
An obvious advantage of this system, is that it would instantaneously deny any attempt to impose rules on people where the majority does not wish such regulation (e.g the protection of advertising material / obscenity, that might otherwise be called "public property"). Disadvantages of course being the application of budgeting, and the resolution of conflicting policies.
