Forget bills, legislators, and senates. We have internet now!
Government sets up a web site that normal people can go to and vote for against, or to change or make new laws.
People can set up 'templates' and get others to vote for the same list of things.
Votes that get more than 5% of the constituency
override all normal legislative action; lower percentages are still made known to the senators and representatives.

Voting for laws is called direct democracy,
as opposed to indirect democracy, voting
for people who decide on laws. Prior art:
Switzerland. |
