Being a citizen informed enough to understand all of those nuances is a lot of work that most people don’t have time for. That’s kind of the point of a Republic: Let people who are good at policy do policy. But it’s failed for two reasons: 1) Lack of a media being a proper check on politicians, and 2) people voting for someone that confirms their fears, not who could do the right job.
