Описание: What if the key to fixing democracy isn't more elections-but fewer? In his TEDx talk, Michael explores the ancient practice of sortition - a system where randomly selected citizens, rather than elected politicians, serve as legislators. Once the foundation of Athenian democracy, could this radical idea be the key to revitalizing modern governance? As President of the Mason Investment Club and Co-President of the Finance Academy, Michael Foley is no stranger to making strategic decisions. But beyond finance and economics, he's deeply invested in the future of democracy. On campus, Michael also serves on the Institute for Integrative Conservation Student Leadership Council and is a proud member of Delta Chi Fraternity. And when he's not analyzing markets or debating political reform, he's proving his skills at the dartboard, navigating life with 40 first cousins, or still coming to terms with the fact that he isn't actually a British citizen. For Michael, TEDx is more than just a stage - it's a platform for bold ideas. He's here to challenge conventional thinking and ignite a conversation on the future of democracy. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
