Did you hear of direct democracy? Or grassroots democracy? So basically decisionmaking processes that are made the same way as we do it in free software.
People who agree in a cause cooperate freely. ...
I know about direct democracy Cyprus party, the other I wasn’t aware of.
I believe for true democracy to be achieved we should have a say in all decisions, using the digital signature software government already use.
Politicians could limit themselves to proposing the documented ideas, then citizens vote.
With clear government budgets, if a minimum of votes is reached for a decision it could be implemented, if it doesn’t reach, a reformation of that proposal to fit the allocated budget granted by the votes could be a way to go.
This obviously requires citizens to be constantly checking for proposals, at least in their region or nation-wide. But I still believe there’s no other true way of achieving democracy. If you vote for political parties that you THINK will act according to your interests, you basically have no control.
