In part 3 and part 4, we saw ways in which PeopleCount.org will change our political culture. In this article, we mention a few more aspects which will be rolled out later.
In 15-30 minutes a week, over the course of a year, each citizen will be able to learn about and take responsibility for all sorts of issues. And we’ll see wonderful new changes. Congress will become more and more responsive, and less and less partisan. We’ll be on our way to building the future we want.
There are a lot more details- ways we keep your data private and secure, how we ensure questions aren’t biased and allow full ranges of answers, all sorts of ways the profiles will be more approachable and faster to answer than the simple format in the current prototype. You’ll be able to get great information focused on a particular issue, and there’ll be ways for citizens to create questions and answers to high standards. It’ll be easy to find out what your representatives think, see their short reports, drill down for details, and lots more.
Yes, we’ll need money. But we’ll need less money than a contested congressional campaign, much less money than a presidential campaign. And we’ll deliver better results across America. Think of all the causes that ask for your donations. On PeopleCount, they’ll all find it to be easy, quick and inexpensive to get their issue in front of America and amass the political will to bring about action, or not. If there’s insufficient support, they’ll discover this quickly. They’ll efficiently decide to focus on a non-governmental approach, or focus their efforts on making changes in cities or states that support their cause. Support PeopleCount now, and spend much less money on politics in the future.
