    Elect the Dead

    I was recently looking at Serj Tankian's site Elect the Dead.
    Elect the Dead
    I thought it would be a nice idea to post this site and the main things it wants to reform:
    1. GET RID OF THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE
    2. EQUALIZE CORPORATE FUNDING IN ELECTIONS
    3) TAXATION BY MULTIPLE CHOICE
    4) INSTANT RUNOFF VOTING IN OUR ELECTORAL PROCESS
    5) ABOLISH ALL PAID AND PROFESSIONAL LOBBY FIRMS
    Look at the site to see a more in depth explanation of the points. Also watch the few videos on the site. What is your opinion on these things that he and others think should be reformed?

    I started a thread about the electoral college a while back. It's around here somewhere. I agree it should be disposed of. Unfortunately, the little states won't let it happen because they want more of a say.

    Knowledge is power, use it well.

    Don't fear the unknown, seek to understand it

    Yes I agree here is something I said about this point earlier:
    This (the Electoral College) is just another way around not to inform that actual public of this country. I personally find it horrible how these 538 electors can count more than the people in this country about 303,622,602, especially the ones that do care. (Not to mention that this is relatively 0% of America, 0.00017719365964724852) Like the website addressed, The vote in 2000 is a great example of why the Electoral College should be eliminated. The guy that most of us voted for didn't make it to the White House. Doesn’t that bother you?
