When Moses presented the tablets of the Ten Commandments nobody suggested that there should be a referendum, and the rules have stayed pretty much the same ever since. It is true that corruption was not mentioned, but it is covered by “Thou shalt not steal”.
KISS principles (“Keep It Simple, Stupid”) should apply to the Constitution.
If you have too many laws covering the same thing it gives lawyers “wiggle” power (and income). If you have so many different courts, that also clouds the issues.
Rules for a referendum:
1. Be the one to write the referendum question.
2. Think of a question where the answer is NO!
3 Frame that question in a way to turn the answer to YES.
