The last best idea on this, first suggested by Thomas Jefferson in the
Declaration of Independence, was called democracy, in which the
participation of the people in the decision making process would be
encouraged to the maximum extent possible. State-of-the-art management
science currently supports this old idea, although many people remain
skeptical. Giving up individual power to sustain the more powerful general
welfare of the people may be an effective remedy but no lightning has
struck yet.
