I love this! Strong argument and delivery. As we contemplate blockchain voting, I think it is important that we step back and ask ourselves what are we voting on.
- How might we change the political system?
- Do we stay with the Electoral College in the U.S.?
- Do we expand beyond the two party system?
- Do we begin shifting towards direct voting on issues, decisions, and/or laws?
The latter I am personally most interested in. I would love to see people voting on the issues that they are most interested in. It would be also important for people to have opportunities for even more active roles than simply voting.
True, this would all require an informed and engaged citizenry. I see the seeds being sown with the citizen journalist movement brought upon by the Q Posts.
I bet we at Steemit have ideas on that as well :)
Rock on!
Yep for sure. I think it would be great if we would vote as a country on things that are not being addressed by the existing political system or should not be making the decision. E.g., DAPL pipeline, constraining AI, where we draw the line with any technology, and how to deal with the cabal once the storm clears. LOL
The most important thing is an informed populace.
