He concludes that, despite the risks, rising polarization justifies the increased use of these types of commissions.

So do you agree with the author? The way to stop the suicide of democracy is to create bureaucracy, eliminating the polarization of of govt?

Do I agree that the nation should be run largely by committees? No, I don't agree with the author....not by a long shot.
It's too much consolidation of power into too small of a group and there is no Constitutional provision for enacting this plan.
(not that such a thing gets in the way of Liberals/Progressives)
And many of these committees could/would have members who go through no election process whatsoever and who are nothing more than political appointees.
