DEMOCRACY- Rule by Human People

Have you ever think if our elections system were, in fact, the main cause to politic malfunction? And if we tried a new one?
Democracy, aclaimed by gouvernours and diplomates all over the world, justice, freedom, equality, and so on. Is it working? Our world is better than before? Yes, we evolved a lot, but I think, there is still a long way to go. There are many ideologies and utopies, many discussions about what is right and what is wrong, many decisions should be taken globally by informed people or not. Information is the root key for good decisions, that's why public classification is so important in large or smaller comunities (e.g. country politics, classrooms).




 How it works
 ·

We vote by chosing a candidate among all others, we select the best of all, or the less worst!

 · The winner is the most voted.

 Why democracy is failing
 ·

Lots of people are losing credibility in traditional election rights.

 ·

Abstensions are increasing all over the world specialy arround young people.

 · Abstension is a confuse matter, disagreement to available candidates and indifference to politic life is some of the most used arguments.
 ·

Democratic election system is the main cause to politic bipolarization. Why? Because systematic selections of one canditate among several others corresponds to a bistate feedback information. Your answer to election is: "x" is good and "the others" are bad. Candidates learn how to react to a bistate information, this means they will tend to agregate in two distinct ideals. For you "x" is good, so candidate "x" fight to be bigger joining more people with the same ideals to respond to your good feedback. The same is valid for an elector that says "the others" (including "x") are bad and "y" is good. Electors tend also to bipolarize ideas because candidates success depend from their bipolarization. Their bipolarization reaction is due to our two state response imposed by elections.

 ·

The candidates are the owners of the absolute opinion vote of themselfs, this means that people never classify candidates true value, voters are limited to express a comparision between the selected candidate and all the others. If all candidates decide between them to be bad gouvernours, then there will be no way to people express their disagreement, gouvernours will be elected anyway whatever their absolute quality!

Democracy viewed by the perspective of engineering has a constant uncertainty, with a drift unknown. An analogy with electronic engineering means that the resulting signal is floating, there is no ground connection!
