    But what I was getting at in the last post was logical future possibilities for the structure of governance and the role voting might play in them.

    Obviously, there are several assumptions, most importantly that no apocalyptic scenarios come about, and that things don't stay approximately the same as they are now.
    At the lowest level of local government, you don't even need a single vote to get to participate in governance. All you need to do is turn up reliably so that you can get tasks assigned to you which you do, as well as discuss what gets done. Heck, they'd probably be happy if you just turn up occasionally and talk. I'm not such a contributive member of society, which is why I'm so grateful to those who are. I do read the local government's newsletters, so as to remind me of the good work they do. To not do anything relating to any level of government, then to pretend that's some kind of higher moral position, is an insult to those who work selflessly for the community.
