"Equality supposes that everyone has the capacity to govern. It is of course extremely difficult to realize in practice. I still suggest we should strive to abandon the model of the government of the elite, and diminish the gap between those who govern and those who are governed. If we don’t move our stagnant representative democracies forward, we will witness an even closer alliance of the ruling class and the financial elite. I support the idea of direct democracy and believe that technological innovations make it more possible than ever before."
