Just something I was thinking about while taking the 2 mile walk home, could the net be used to vote for everything?
For example, we wanted to decrease tax on one thing but increase it on something else the world votes on it and if it passes it is enforced.
Or if it's about something specific like should we more money into researching something that you need a certain qualification for only people with that qualification could vote on it 'cos they know what they are talking about.
Like with the whole SOPA thing, the people who wrote it don't know what the net is like, whereas it took the whole net to get enraged to make it go away for a bit. What I am suggesting is we all vote SOPA go away permanently or amend it so it's less like a sledge hammer and more like a scalpel. (of course you don't need a qualification for this SOPA thing but I couldn't think of good example that you need a doctorate or masters for)
What about voting on where the money goes or how banking works.
I think this system could get rid of stupid ass/selfish politicians and actually be a democracy, maybe it would stop wars and such by unifying people.
You wouldn't have parties making claims to change things only to get into power and not live up to any of them. Like Chris Rock says, .
You don't have to think "well I will vote for ... 'cos they have the least things I am not really sure of", like you might agree with 9 of the 10 things they claim they are going to change but that 10th one is something you really don't like ... this way you can vote for the 9 things you like but vote against the thing you don't like.
Just an idea, thoughts?

banking is built the wrong way round. Poor people have money taken off them while a rich person is given money interest. If I go into my overdraft the bank charge me £5 for it, if I go over my overdraft they charge me £20 ... I don't have enough money so they take money off me? what! While rich people are given money for having money, "well done sir! You have loads of money, have this guys £25, he didn't have enough money so we took his and now you can have it!"
Not to mention those fucking bankers, "you ruined the economy of the entire country? So you only get a million pound bonus this month!" WHAT!
