How do you start motivating a lazy and apathetic public to learn about their candidates, and vote? Door-to-door campaigns? Talks at the local library? Grocery store posters?
Well, imagine if we could buy votes...I'd bet we could scrounge up a few hundred thousand votes for the price of a few vials of crack. Then imagine we 'elect' bin Laden as a Senator or something with these votes.
I bet people would start voting after that.
If they don't, offer them two vials of crack! More benefits of the vote buying scheme are being discovered daily. Maybe it could be trialled at a local level in the US. You could get it started with one of those proposition thingies you have over there. It shouldn't be difficult - how much would it cost to get someone to sign a petition? cheers, Tim
