That's why I'm against a Direct Democracy,because in it's simplest form,Direct Democracy is the will of the majority against the will of the Minority.
In other words it's like two wolves and a sheep trying to decide what they'll have for dinner.
Not to say that a Representative Democracy is immune from corruption,over time (As we have seen in the U.S. in particular) representatives can be bought off,black mailed,or they could have an agenda to push from the start.
No political system or lack of political system is perfect.
For two reasons,power and personal Greed.

Dependence in one person to run over your life and a hundred thousand others' somehow doesn't harm society? There's nothing wrong when THEY control the people? Even assuming your stupid understanding of direct democracy, it's not OK for everyone to "control others" but it's OK for ONE to control them?
That's fucking fascist.
