Well, maybe. People do vote. You can look at the strong opposition local and state level politicians see with any property tax or state income tax increase. There's a built-in regulating mechanism. Taxes are usually one of the top issues that swings elections from one party to another, so the democratic regulating mechanism works somewhat well, I believe. It's not an obscure topic that can escape democratic oversight, like subsidies for lumber harvesting in a few counties in Montana, for example.
