That would be fine, if everyone were aware of and understood the issues.

It's hard to imagine a public that well-informed. There would need to be investigatory commitees formed to study difficult issues in-depth (as congress does) present options, and make reccomendations. It can't be as simple as letting everyone vote on every issue...
