It's a good idea: You're competing against "traditional" congressmen by providing an enhanced service. You may force other representatives to offer more transparency to compete against votesimple: Even if votesimple loses a race, that would still lead to a win-win situation.
- tkiley 17y agoExactly! Transparency is key. Our current legislative system is a convoluted mess that violates all sorts of principles of good design. For instance: The often-repeated of packing a bill with unrelated provisions to pick up additional support is positively ridiculous, and leads to inefficient government by design. I believe this would improve if citizens had a better opportunity and incentive to know and care what's going on in congress.
