I wasn't arguing about the ability of people to participate in the actual governing, or about "direct democracy", or even about the complexity of modern governments - Although you know that we disagree about the the conclusion derive from the agreed observation. What I was writing about, or mostly recommending reading, was about the reasons behind and the results of the various elections reform.
The article that I referred to argues that :
1. The motive, and practice, of the election reforms is to prevent access from political groups. And while modern democracy isn't about direct governing it is aiming to provide equal access.
2. While the various reforms claim to prevent special interest groups (or wealthier groups) they are preventing participation of ordinary citizens - not only in the federal level but also in the local level.
I hoped that I cleared the issue, and I really recommend reading the article.
