Again, we can say it's corrupt all we want but *WE* do have a say. We do get to vote. And we all know that every representative does not represent all their constituents. Until the representatives are removed...we will constantly struggle with this so-called Democracy. Technology has finally caught up to where it can be used for a direct Democratic country with lower costs than running elections every two years. Now is the time to start implementing. And yes, my first vote is to eliminate paper ballots and bar people without access to computers from elections. Sorry, a computer is available almost everywhere you go. It's time to grow with the times and move on. --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
