=====================
After 10 years of prattling we shall vote on a silly
flat cliche describing I&R. It's about like voting on
how many angels can sit on a pin point.

Now, quote from Shadow Parliament:

QUOTE
Snapshot I&R usually confused with DD would be
in reality the most dangerous dodging maneuver
of Particracy against the true DD.
UNQUOTE

DD involves necessarily 3 Functions:
1.Initiative (supporting individual proposals)
2.Debate (consensus building)
3.Decision (upon a consensus threshold; no snapshot
  vote)

Each of these functions works in small groups, viz
Kibbutzim, but national size involves problems not
only unsolved, but not yet properly formulated.
That's what we could try to formulate and to discuss,
rather than voting on silly, non pertinent cliches.
