Then we become a true democracy and lose all the safeguards the founding fathers gave us. True majority rule would spin out of control almost immediately. All the current “Blue” population centers would dictate our destiny.

I trust ordinary people more than I trust politicians. I like the idea of a virtual country, where you have the freedom live according to your beliefs. Your tax rate would reflect this. For example, libertarians would pay the least, Democrats the most. Your taxes would be targeted to specific programs that you support. For example, a military that protects us against foreign enemies would be on my list. Also public infrastructure like roads. This would connect each person to a government they can support, knowing that their tax money is not going to fund abortions, for example. It would be very difficult, nearly impossible, for any group to dominate the others.
