RCG: Towards a Radically Balanced Legislature
Version 1.3,
10/11/2004The following is an
attempt to define what Aristotle might call the "final cause" of representative legislature (and
other democratic processes), as a guide to determining their optimal structure.
Thanks to my friends on
centroids
for their input.The purpose
of democratic
systems is to
justly optimize liberty
across all the people by
establishing incentives to:
i) perceptively prioritize
issues
of the people ii)
creatively develop
ideas
by the people iii) wisely
make
decisions
for the people
