And for my next post about Utopia. We will cover the topic of political elections.
In Utopia, if you want to vote you show photo ID. Straightforward. No loopholes. No nonsense.
I have more to say about campaigns. In Utopia we do not hold campaigns in the media circus way America presently does. Each candidate puts forth a brochure in multiple formats (paper, electronic, braille, etc...). In this brochure they make clear, straightforward statements about where they stand on all relevant issues. Each candidate answers questions on the same issues. Each resident gets the information and votes based on that. No advertising allowed, attack ads or not.
In this presidential election it is estimated more than $6 billion will be spent on advertising. Yes, billion with a B. Use this money to invest in the problems our country currently has. The list is long: education, sustainable energy sources, food, healthcare, the list goes on. And on and on and on.
I am not the only one fed up.
Take a moment and think - $6 Billion would go a long way.
