Chris makes the provocative case that America's problems stem not from too little democracy, but too much. Revisiting a column he wrote 16 years ago, he argues that uninformed voting, populist politics, social media outrage, and the direct election of senators have weakened the republic's constitutional safeguards. From the rise of rage-driven campaigns to the erosion of institutional checks and balances, Chris explains why the Founders were skeptical of pure democracy and why restoring limits on political power may be essential to preserving the country.
