There really should be a rule that important decisions can't pass with a tiny majority
- dragonwriter 4y ago> There really should be a rule that important decisions can’t pass with a tiny majority There are at least two major problems with such a rule: (1) On an important question, “yes” and “no” are both important decisions. (2) Who decides what is “important”? You can make a rule that is closer to “you can’t make specific kinds of deviations from the status quo without a supermajority vote”, but that’s…very different from “important decisions”.
