Current level of technology makes it possible for every
voting age citizen to vote for or against the very bills one man or
woman now votes for as your elected Congressional Representative in
Washington D.C.. Think about voting daily on bills before Congress not
through your elected representative but voted for or against by you
the American citizen. From the comfort of your own home right over
your television screen.
The average American home has a computer and access to
as much news as your Congressman in Washington D.C.. You know as much
about domestic concerns affecting all Americans as the people working
in Washington, D.C..
We will always have a Congress with a senate and a house of
representatives, but a time in the not too distant future will see
well-informed Americans voting directly on important domestic issues.
not from the Capitol building in Washington, D.C., but from the
comfort of their own home over the computer or televison.
There will be no more talk about liberals and conservatives, red and
blue states (Communist lingo if I ever heard it), when the technology
arrives in the average home to allow you to vote directly on the
important bills before Congress affecting the entire country..
