While this would prevent lobby influence, if we have (hypothetically) a large population of uneducated people with the economic understanding of a twelve-year-old, then we basically have a group of twelve-year-olds voting. This would probably only be a problem in highly impoverished areas but a problem, none the less. It could easily be mitigated by policies, but that would clash with the whole "everyone votes" idea.
