Um... that's pretty much what happens in a democracy, yes. At least, people aren't going to vote for the guy with the tax plans that affect them negatively just because he's going to use that extra money for the betterment of the people as a whole, for instance. And when you tally up all those voices, you get a rudimentary understanding of what the majority of people want.
