Could technology replace human government leaders?

If we could just google the vote on policy and law… what purpose would there be for human leadership?

Let’s consider war, or environmental policy… Just cast your vote on the Goog and let the public decide without political posturing, lobbyist influence, corporate agenda…

No more politicians.

You want to author a law… then send your proposal to the cloud and let the meme catch on. If enough people like your idea, then it reaches a point of being voted upon. Pass or fail, if you don’t like the results then begin filling the cloud with counter arguments and hopefully begin the process again. Sway the public towards your position based upon the pure logic of your argument.

Police and Army would have standing orders to obey the will of the people as presented to them by the cloud. So would corporations. If people vote down traffic light cameras or mandatory seat belt… then so be it.

Obviously I haven’t thought this out completely. And I’m not necessarily for it. I’m simply wondering why it couldn’t happen and benefit society more than our current system.
