We need a government that is by EVERYONE and for EVERYONE!

Short-term goal:

Citizens voting on some issues -- even pre-canned ones from the current government.

Long-term goal:

Dynamic decentralized voting network that automatically evolves as citizens submit ideas and vote on ideas and their aspects.

Even complex issues will work themselves out as citizens' vote on various ideas and their aspects. Many complex issues can be broken down (or be redesigned) into multiple simple ideas. Citizens may submit thousands of budget ideas; which citizens will then review, revise, rate, recommend, and vote. Some clever solutions will be the result. A Citizen will vote on ideas that are important to them, and will leave other ideas to other citizens. The voting network can be designed to insure that citizens are qualified to vote on a given idea (anyone, age, education, or knowledge requirement).

We can create a secure electronic voting network; however, politicians must be considered the ENEMY since they WILL loose their jobs if EVERYONE can vote on REAL issues. Things are NOT complicated, politicians MAKE things complicated. The current government can take years to make decisions, where as, with a voting network important decisions can be made within minutes. There are a lot of GREAT ideas that exist as bills, but waiting years for a good idea is bad for everyone. Expect MORE taxes, MORE bureaucracy, MORE paperwork, MORE national debt, and LESS freedom from the current government -- citizens need a REAL VOICE. Having few in charge ONLY benefits the few.

How

1. Vote on ISSUES, NOT PEOPLE.

2. Create a better representative government (optional).
