Yes Gene, that's exactly what I want, a government that makes laws based on
what the people they represent tell them they want, instead of based on
what special interest group donates the most money to the key figures.

But no I'm not saying run the government by computer, for all I care they
can use paper. What I am saying is that with the level of technology we
have today compared to 200 years ago, I don't think having the people
actually represent themselves is such a far fetched idea. It certainly
can't be worse than having disney dictate our laws.
