Better Voting Machines
A modernized voting system that doesn't involve a form of data collection from the 19th century.
Q1: Any recommendations?
Idea Description
As a 19 year old college student, i can see why the voter turnout is low. I have very strong political opinions, but coming from someone who doesn't know how to mail a real letter ( I've probably mailed less than one per year), it makes sense that voter turnout is poor. This would solve an enormous amount of problems as far as voter turnout. Another problems it will solve is location voter registration area. One thing that is and always will be true is that people will be people, and without motivation, people don't do things. Although the scare is that the system will be hacked/rigged, there has to be some way to accomplish online security. We have saran wrap for christ's sake!
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
While i haven't planned this far yet, it would get the idea across. I have little power to accomplish this task myself.
Vote for it now.
I like your idea; I want to improve your odds of getting funding I will vote for your idea if you will vote for mine. My idea is for a web site that raises money for inventors and entrepreneurs called New Idea website Check out my idea blob submission and visit New Idea Website and see what I can do for you. http://www.ideablob.com/ideas/4060-NEW-IDEA-WEBSITE The need for jobs is one of the biggest problems that a democratic government faces because creating jobs is an unwanted byproduct of business and industry. The reason I say its unwanted is the more jobs a business creates the more its expenses are and the smaller it’s bottom-line. If business and industry have their way they would run their companies with no jobs at all no management or labor. To deal with this dilemma I pr…moreopose a federal venture capital carrot fund that literally pays entrepreneurs to create jobs. The investment bank would be expected invest in seed level startup projects like yours and to lose money at a specified dollar per jobs ratio for example during hard times that figure may be as high as $20,000 per job and good times the figure may be as low as five dollars per job, by controlling this ratio the fed could roughly control unemployment. The bank will be expected to fund novel products and services and stay away from things like restaurants that will simply draw jobs from other restaurants or moving factories from one part of the country to another. If you like this idea vote for it and send the congressional letter from the website. Sincerely Frank Scruggs
