I've been pondering this question for a while.
Is there a limit to the size of a population that can effectively be governed by our type of democracy?
I can't help but think there is a population limit that bounds the effectiveness of such a government. Our 2 party system cannot represent all of our people and it is quite clear that it doesn't and hasn't for some time. We have become a country of to highly polarized ideological camps that dominate the country and leaves many feeling under or unrepresented.
Population limits seem to exist in all systems. Is government any different?
