"You are promoting an idea that was formed when people wrote with feathers and couldn't ride a horse to the house of government to represent themselves. Maybe it's time for a change?"

That was the practical reason for having a representative government. However a 2nd and perhaps more important reason was to avoid a majority tyranny. It sounds to me that you are actually speaking against a democracy and not  a Constitutional Republic; to which we are supposed to be, and that would never allow its citizens to be voting anything into law in the first place?

Here is what a true democracy would look like:  
Question. (What if the majority of Kent citizens decided to vote in a law that not only allowed fireworks, but required every one of its citizens to participate? )

For the record, we have not been a practicing Constitutional Republic for a very long time and more akin to the above example that our founders warned us about and hated perhaps more than the kingdom they rejected.
