What are your opinions regarding representative vs. direct democracy?

Asked by Caravanfan (13548points) November 2nd, 2018

Specifically I’m talking about the passing of laws. In California (and many other states) we have an initiative process where the population can pass or reject laws on themselves. Often they are funding measure that can involve billions of dollars. Do you agree with this direct democracy, or do you agree with a more representative democracy (where you vote for people who vote on the laws)?
