[QUOTE="Kramodlog, post: 7184372, member: 55961"] I'm waiting for [I]Infomocracy[/I] by Malka Ann Older to arrive by mail. I do not like ereaders and I want a physical copy that I can keep and lend. Anyway, I'm really curious to read about direct democracy. "[COLOR=#181818][FONT=Merriweather]It's been twenty years and two election cycles since Information, a powerful search engine monopoly, pioneered the switch from warring nation-states to global micro-democracy.
