The economy has a standard of value that measures its success or failure.Democracy can also have a standard of value with which to measures its success or failure. The value standard of the economy is money which is a medium of exchange. Of course money must circulate in order to accomplish its 'exchange function'. Since that medium is a quantification, it can be changed, modified, or accumulated as number does in mathmatics. If, at present, that medium is accumulated in the top 1%, and if it is not circulating or exchanging, something is very wrong with an economy designed to circulate. But, the value system of a democracy is different from that of the economy and must be kept separate. The value system of government relates to the freedom and equality of each individual in the polity. If the freedom and equality are important, the form of government has to be democratic, or stated differently, a government "of people", "by people" and "for people". But, our democracy relies on constitutional interpretive practices and hence is subject to many linguistic variables. Of course, that's necessary and there's nothing wrong with that. But, if these practices were to include 'quantification', the efficiency or effect of any policy or law could be more easily measured. Otherwise, unfounded generalizations will 'free-float' in abstract space completely unfounded on anything real. By 'quantification' we mean to 'extend' our discourse into the geometric and mathmatical field. Of course, I don't refer to a geometry and math that follows the basic paradigm of those disciplines. But, I do mean that we switch to those disciplines when the results of some political concept involves some degree of measurement. After all, math and geometry are languages also and more precise. They also 'move' or 'communicate' from 'here' to 'there'; they 'include' and 'exclude'; and 'Number' never changes; in its quantified state, its always the same. So is the individual in a democracy. In quantification we can more easily measure the 'democratic tenor' of any policy or law. Hence its need. The relation between the One and the Many at the bottom is real and that relation can change the applicability of the 'discourse' from one replete with variables to one more certain and quantifiable. Power in its descend from the Top to the Bottom must be applied democratically.It must be tempered quantifiably.
