Because "a perfect question" has not been defined. And a crowd-sourced "perfect question" is unlikely to make much more sense than "What is the ultimate answer to life, the universe and everything?" |

Ah, of course. Here is your £1* share of the crowd-sourced £70m. Don't spend it all at once. |

There used to be a poll site called ask500people.com which tanked from lack of interest. They never had anywhere near 500 people responding. |

We are at least 2 decades late for using internet as direct democracy. What should be happening is: 1) People put their concept to referendum. 2) If a critical mass of people (20,000? More?) upvote the idea, then it goes to nationwide referendum. At the federal level, people would have to vote, at most, once or twice a day. |

The nice thing about the internet is that no one has to ask the government if people can put up democratic polls yet. |
