    Demarchy sounds like an interesting approach. I wish the Welsh well. But I'm increasingly inclined to think that politics is a dry well. You can make your political system better, but it won't matter much as long as there is no economic democracy. Real democracy requires each, and I think all that politics really accomplishes in the end is to fool people into thinking that political democracy is all that's needed. Politics tends to only legitimize current economic arrangements. I think progressives would do well to forget about politics for a while and instead concentrate on building an alternative economy. Change the economy and the politics will fall in line. And I think that after a century and a half of Marxist misadventures they are beginning to do just that.

    slice Wales out of the UK.

    infiltrate with socialist and communist cadres.

    spice it up with polyandrous/polygynous communes ("love shacks"😉.

    and a boy band!

    they won't know what hit 'em!

    it's a plan!
