I will give you an example of how it should work..

For example



I will create an agreement with you that if you rob me, your punishment should be your hand get cut off, and if I rob you, my hand should get cut off.

Then from that agreement, we find a government to enforce our agreement.

In this sense, true freedom comes to light.

Hence

Everyone will be able to live how they want, that means everyone, not the majority/minority..

I hope that explains a little bit of what I mean.

Personally I think the approach you have outliined is very risky as that means all types of human depravity (the minority) could not only become legal, but potentially a legal obligation.. E.g those who like little children in an unhealthy way will be able to set up their own gov and make liking children in a unhealthy way not only legal but a legal obligation..

Now that premise sends shivers down my spine..

All we need for a true democracy is to abolish party politics..
We need to elect independant reps that are there as our voice.

Some argue that this slows down decision making but is that really a bad thing??
How many new laws do we need or how many old laws need changing??

I think with the party system Government changes too many things way to quickly..

TRUE democracy is the way..IMHO..
