direct vote = mob rule -- the 49.99% have to live by the fickleness of the 50.01%
decentralization is better than centralization in all sytems that need redundancy.
Imagine 1 ATM, or only 1 power plant
Decenmtralization provides network security, accessibility, redundancy ...
@shugenja, why is direct vote = mob rule ?
All crypto currencies work through direct vote. Do you imply that they are all controlled by mob ?
Indirect vote is more prone to mob rule because it creates dis-balance of power when proxies have more power than money and offer their power for sale to mob. With direct vote it's too expensive for mob to buy all voters power.
Also each voter should be able to override some proxy votes in case of disagreement with proxy. That will combat corruption as proxy cannot sell and guarantee his vote for special benefits.
Decentralization of voting proxies should be sufficient to combat mob and corruption.
It's ok to have decentralized power that controls centralized systems. Those systems that need redundancy will have it because voters will vote for it.
because direct vote = % that means no other checks and balances matter.
A representative republic, with a bicameral legislature, and an executive with veto power is the best.
And you are wrong about indirect vote -- dead wrong.
You apparently want a referendum on every single law.
This is a very dumb idea -- 80% of humans are stupid.
No, I don't want referendum on every single law, I want voters proxies vote for most of laws, but voters to have an option to override the vote of their proxy on a single law if they disagree.
Do corporations have bicameral legislature ? Should they ?
Currently bicameral legislature does not work well in the US if it passes omnibus bills that proxies don't read and can't pass budget without government shutdown drama.
Why am I dead wrong about indirect vote ?
"decentralization is better than centralization in all sytems that need redundancy"
I can say that centralization is better than decentralization in all systems that need speed.
Since crypto currency needs both, how do we pick which one has higher priority ?
