The only thing that will work is a form of benevolent dictatorship.
I have been thinking that we could form a non-elected Shadow Council that has the power to veto bills passed in parliament, thus providing the people with the show that is democracy while also denying them the power to harm themselves. The Council would also be able to recommend changes and draft its own bills for debate in parliament.

I'd like to hear more about your ideas on enlightened absolutism (a.k.a. a benevolent dictatorship), a debate on this would be interesting.
