Lessig and basic, basic repairs to our Representative Democracy

April 09, 2013

 

Representative Democracy is delivering very poor service to the citizen. Time to fix it. It doesn't need disruptive innovation, just basic repair...Basic, very basic citizenship... fight against corruption, especially when it is at the center for our institutions and so ubiquitous and so covered by pompous language that nobody gaf about it. We need the schools to educate the kids to take the addiction out of papa, as they did with tobacco!!!!... just start moving, just do something that can accumulate, just move in a systematic direction... as Plato would have said, it time for the pendulum of the Republic to swing toward mechanisms of distributing agency that are more in tune with the spirit of the city, the polis.
