I think some fundamental rights must be guaranteed regardless of what the majority wants and that’s usually the purpose of a Constitution, however when it comes to pass bills and policies it’s unclear to me what would be a better system than a majority system. The problem though is that bills aren’t currently passed by the majority. Electing representatives through majority voting isn’t the same as majority voting of bills. Representatives are too easily corrupted and/or mislead the voters regarding their intentions. Most of what is passed, the majority doesn’t actually want. We need more direct #democracy and/or random selection of representatives.
