3) Democracy should be pervasive; not limited to some small area of life.
Our democracy is not pervasive. A lot of the most important things in your life are not set by government. They’re set by your employer: How much you’re paid, how you spend most of your day, whether you have a job, and so on. Do we get a say in this? Nope.
Why in the world would you want the government to set (1) how much you’re paid, (2) how you spend most of your day, (3) whether you have a job, etc.? I understand why it’s objectionable that your boss has so much power over your daily life, but isn’t putting the government in control of these things just exchanging one boss for another one?
One that you have no meaningful control over (see #1 and #2 above) and cannot even escape without fleeing the country?
Anticopyright.
