Direct Democracy

If you would like a fully detailed sketch of the organization of direct democracy and how it would function, please see the following link: http://www.infoshop.org/faq/secI5.html

A great first step toward direct democracy is a proposal to create a ballot initiative at the federal level. Please see: http://ni4d.us/.

I used some footage from the Venus Project. I just came across the videos and apparently they are pretty big on YouTube. I don't necessarily indorse the VP. I actually just heard about it and I'm ordering a book about the subject. Im just letting everyone know so I dont create any kind of confusion. From what I've seen (limited to about 3 videos) it looks interesting but I would need more information. From what I can tell, it looks a little bit like libertarian communism but that's just my first impression.

I should also mention that Mutualist (a school of Left-Libertarianism) foresee a society in which direct democracy takes place in the workplace but not in the individual community.

@Pendaboot Typical response from an ignorant stooge resistant to change.

Communism is a type of government. Democracy is a process within government. So by recommending we change the way people participate in Government, the poster of the video is automatically a communist?

Get out of here with that nonsense. I also love how you branded the video as "evil"; Guess what? "Evil" is a perspective.

@Muffinfordinner No, higher taxes makes it worse and revenue goes down

@DP3mo24hofosho

Why would that necessarily cause the state to go bankrupt? Don't taxes pay for those things?

[DP3mo24hofosho]

@Muffinfordinner I don't, stupid people who want free stuff do.

@DP3mo24hofosho

Why do you vote for those things?

The founder built a the republic as the direct democracy. The individual has the power over their home, the community has power over the community the town...the county, the state...the federal government... The power is in the hand of a few because people do not exercise their Unalienable Right to Self Governance. They are ruled by "the consent of the governed". You consent to allow politicians to be corrupt.
