Alex Harrowell on the illiberality of direct democracy, this time in Switzerland. I should really apologise, by the way, for linking to a post elsewhere that makes a case that I've been striving to make for some time.
More, perhaps than any other single issue, I wish that this point were widely discussed and acknowledged.

Except...
This particular example is franchise-effecting, a heading which I would make my one caveat to direct democracy.
