   ...families, communities, a community of interests.

 - in our families we discuss and decide
 - in our community we elect representatives with whom we can meet on a
regular basis, if we so desire.
 - in a community of interests, size dictates that our representatives
handle the day-to-day affairs. If we do not care for how they have handled
themselves, we exercise our democratic rights to not re-elect them.

Again, let us not confuse pure-democracy with democracy - unless all we
really want to do is talk about things...
