Everyone should understand that Law has it's own Language, it's own Dictionary and when you read these Laws, Sometimes the word we were taught means something completely unguessable placed in a newly created Dictionary for it's new purpose for this Law and only this Law as it's Dictionary states.

I will wish for your wants but I will always Pray for your Needs.

A website where people log in and in the best available layman's terms make understanding of what the new law entails and people views to what it consists of as well as we being able to educate from schools a greater understanding of This Language created called, LAW.

We could vote with actual Integrity of the people first instead of money always being the final factor, if we have full bellies and a roof upon our heads, can we sometimes stop the wanting and take care of all peoples needs first.

@Covey69 People can purchase stuff online, voting could be done online also. If need be, a seperate line system just for voting could be installed. Representatives would then only put forth the questions we all vote on.

[DaveDowling]

@Covey69

yes, it is called Democracy, which is far different than representative democracy. We all have representative democracy.

[Covey69]

@DaveDowling

Ahh, I see..

So Pure Democracy in it's truest form is called simply Democracy and what we have is more like a Mockcracy.

Representative Democracy is where a few men figured a means to simplify a time because it would be extremely difficult to have everyone in a country involved at once and they could hold power over men who were ignorant from lack of understanding.

Back then when Rep was created..

How do we make it possible for all men to be the voters of law and Elect Fame instead

[DaveDowling]

@Covey69 It could be called a representative nonocracy when only 27% vote.

Voting for canidates that stand up for it, perhaps starting a lobby group, or even a plebisite to get it on the ballots. The only reason we do not have it is because it takes power out of the hands of the few, and puts it back in the hands of the people where it truely belongs. I have inquired into this for a decade. I have asked web security experts, even government people.

[DaveDowling]

@Covey69 In Edmonton we are already using electronic ballot readers, I believe they even electronic transmit the results from all the polling stations to the main station now. then the results are released. It use to take hours to count the ballots, now its minutes, if that. When you vote, watch, they take the ballot and put it in the reader, right after you hand the marked ballot to them.

[Covey69]

It could put a damper on possible Corruptions by changing the rules to Their Monopoly Game.

I would like Representatives to have fame but No Power, like Actors.

[DaveDowling]

@Covey69 indeed, I supoprt Democracy which as you have seen, takes power out of the hands of the few and puts it back in the hands of the people where it truely belongs.

Which is why it is ridiculed in the Media, they always resort to the fenzied mob voting anology.

[Covey69]

Hey Dave, I live in Edmonton.

Why don't you shake some people up by talking about Direct Democracy, that maybe it's time for all the people being able to simply log in and be apart of the laws being created by voting them in numbers. Anyone over the age of 18 gets an ability to share in what takes place by distributing the power among the people.

To start;

Edmonton Bylaws creations and changes are voted by the residents of Edmonton instead of a group of individuals.

Don't you think it's time?

David for Mayor of Edmonton! Those squirrels do not know the bright future that is ahead of them. Democracy is great, thank you for explaining what it is to me. Representative democracies are dumb. Go Dave go!
