Voting with time, money and energy. Wow what a great meme! Explains why market
ecomonies do better in the long run
that centrally controlled ones.
Gee under this idea the less that actually happens in Washington DC the more the
country looks like what most
people spend time and money on wanting... So a tied race in house, senate and
president could be actually good!
One of the ideas in "The Millennial Project : Colonizing the Galaxy in Eight Easy
Steps"
by Marshall T. Savage, Arthur Charles Clarke
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0316771635/
is to set up citying in international waters that are not under any current national
government and are true
democracies. This could be an idea who's time has come... ;-)
