Let's Make this Official

When a person makes the claim to speak for people there should be a way to determine:

There are real people who need to be spoken for.
These real people have signed up officially to be spoken for. Which includes forfeiting their right to speak for themselves on specific topics.

I think part of the problem the modern world can't move past the rut. We want individuals to have freedom. It's obvious, a person speaking unofficially for a group of people lacks the necessary foundation for sustaining uniqueness.
