This is why the Founding Fathers gave us a representative republic. We have not had a true Representative Republic since the House of Representatives was limited to 435 members, the original ratio was 1 Representative to 40,000 voters
This was around 1911, just in time for the Federal Reserve.
If today each representative was to represent 40,000 people, we would have over 10x the representatives. They could do their meetings via internet so there is not a limit representatives can have to conduct business.
