"Power" isn't just the elected figure head. I'm proposing reducing the number of people in power, not replacing them.
- It's impossible. Every state will grow and grow until total collapse. You just can't fire people at will, otherwise they won't vote you.
- Even if you manage to reduce them, in 4 years the next guy will increment them.
- Less people in power is more centralization of power, which leads to despotism.

THAT IS PURE STATISM

Reducing the state is statism, increasing the state is statism, keeping the state the same size is statism.
Statism doesn't seem like a very useful word.
