This is cauing causing the slow slowing down of the process of coordination. If the group will use peer-to-peer equal terms deliberation, the amount of communication time will get bigger exponentiallyquadratically, thus sending the group to an a halt. To solve this, groups usually use unequal methods of deliberation and influence, like hierarchical organization.
The mathematical formula for the number of connection lines in a group is:
'''cl=((n-1)^2-+(n-1))/2'''
cl = connection lines; n = number of group members
* 300 million members will have 45,000,000,000,000,000 cl (This is the connection lines needed for true democracy in the USA)
One of the consequences of this proble is [[participation function]].
