The idea of liquid democracy is appealing because the issues are all opt-in. If there is a particular topic you feel passionate about, say funding stem-cell research, you can choose to vote on it. Maybe not everyone cares about who runs for X office, but I think giving people the option is always the better choice. Doesn't Italy have like the highest youth unemployment rate in Europe? I'd bet some young people have a lot to say on the matter.
- zeitg3ist 12y agoYes, liquid democracy is a cool concept and I'd love to see it applied in a reasonable way, but the OP was talking about local/federal elections, where - I think - online/offline voting wouldn't matter much. Hell, thanks to digital divide I think that making elections online only would actually decrease attendance in Italy!
