Would be great to have this: collect 1,000,000 votes for petition and it goes to Senate for mandatory voting.
Otherwise it's impossible to penetrate the wall between government and people via "your vote, we write response, maybe" - type of approach.

- dragonwriter 14y ago> Would be great to have this: collect 1,000,000 votes for petition and it goes to Senate for mandatory voting. Heck, we don't even have a "collect singatures of a majority of Senators and it goes to the Senate for mandatory voting" rule, so its not surprising that we don't have a "collect signatures of less than 1% of eligible voters and it goes to the Senate for mandatory voting" rule.
