There are 100s of things the majority wants that are squashed by the government all the time. Then there are 100s of things small minorities want that are forced on everyone by the government. People being able to vote with their dollars to get what they want in the market is a nice idea, but it doesn't happen that way. Maybe with smart phones but not with highly government regulated things like cars. Good news is with net "neutrality" maybe we can get the government to decide what the majority wants there as well. That is if they every actually publish the rules they voted on without letting anybody read.
