Uite de ce sa votezi (mass electoral )

mi-a placut, pare copywrited

In fata votului, un prost este egal cu un destept.
Dar doi prosti nu sunt egali cu doi destepti, pentru ca din doi destepti, unul n-o sa vina la vot, fiindca i se pare ca totul e lipsit de sens.
Trei prosti nu fac nici atat cat trei destepti, pentru ca din trei destepti, unul are probleme existentiale si nu vine la vot, iar altul e sigur ca o sa iasa tot aia si n-are sens sa se mai duca.
Patru prosti contra patru destepti? Exclus: din patru destepti, unul n-are Mercedes si i se pare ca n-o sa se schimbe nimic, altul stie el cine o sa iasa, iar al treilea prefera sa adoarma la un film bun de cinemateca.
Rahat, asta e democratia: 100 de destepti n-or sa faca niciodata cat un singur prost care voteaza!

Estonia in world’s first internet election. *Log: 4.03.2007

The Baltic state of Estonia plans to become the world's first country to allow voting in a national parliamentary election via the Internet

E-voting will be introduced for a parliamentary election on March 4, for the first time after it was used in more limited local elections in 2005.

Estonia rushed to modernise after independence, and has become a major European base for Internet telephony group Skype: Estonians helped develop the service, owned by ebay Inc.

Just under 10,000 people voted via the Internet in local elections in October 2005.
Computer specialists have estimated 20,000-40,000 of 940,000 registered voters will vote via the Internet from Feb. 26-28, ahead of the March 4 election day.
