I can’t get over the amount of money spent on elections.
If we give everyone an unique national ID and enable online/digital voting on issues, I feel we can cut a lot of bloat and move things faster.
- austincheney 6y agoYou don’t even need that. Make the primaries the only election. People choosing their favorite candidate without any filter and put all the primaries on the same day.

- jelliclesfarm 6y agoI guess my other question was: why do we even need a president? Or a head of state? Why not a board? Corporations are run better than countries. We could have a Wall Street like ticker for issues that needs votes. A public channel for everyone to get an opp to pitch their POV.

Even though I dislike the US's two-party system, your suggestion just shifts the spending to other places. Cambridge Analytica didn't need political parties in the system in order to be effective.
