Under that system, all leadership would be exclusive and homogeneous, as they would all be a part of some select leadership class, not unlike the nobility class of europe. Picking people from childhood and grooming them to be leaders is no guarantee that they will be good leaders. What do we do if someone is a bad leader in this sytem?
You resign them from their positions because those leaders will not be the only ones in the country/world, more like a part of a council.
I have thought about this as well... this is the best I could come up with.
Who chooses when and why a leader will be removed?
The council, the rest of the people in it.
That concerns me because that creates a conflict of interest if the only people who can invite or remove people from the council are other members of said council. We see in the real world that breeds nepotism and corruption and makes non-violent policy change nearly impossible. Wouldn't it be better to allow the people to choose council members and remove them by vote when necessary?
Yeah, I see your point of view. May be better like that... or a combo of votes maybe (the people and the council).
