I would recommend an app that allows you to contact the appropriate parties and does the leg work for you, like helping you formulate a letter quickly that can be sent to all politicians that you vote affects. So for example, the mayor, the county commissioner, the representative of your district, your senator, your governor, the president etc. Basically an app that makes it easy for people to bitch. Because formulating letters and contacting all of those people is a pain.
I had an idea once for an open platform lobby, where people could come together and write bills, then donations could be collected to hire lobbyist to push the bill. Use the same system that is used against us, to our advantage and make it an open democratic system that anyone can contribute too. Truly bills written by the people, Iceland did something similar when they disbanded their government and it worked very well. This could be a powerful platform where people that contribute valuable input to the bill may get exposure and encouragement to run for office. It could be a platform that empowers people again.
- devs1010 15y agoawesome, yeah these are all good ideas.. I'm thinking down to the local level, I think that its easier to effect change at the local level too, I think its key though to find places to "dig up some dirt" on any public official who is f'ng things up, be it a judge, police officer, councilperson, prosecutor, representative, etc and go after them, but only do it with resources that aren't on the site itself, use whats already out there, just bring it into a form where its easily digestible
