Logicracy is a free, on-line process that gives the people the power to
solve some of the most profound social and political problems facing
many nations today.
In a nutshell, Logicracy makes it possible for the people to easily
define and implement a decision-making process which the majority can
agree will produce much better decisions than are currently made
by any government, and use that process to produce decisions which can
then be compared with the decisions made by government. When a decision
made by the process differs from the decision made by government, the
government's incompetence is proven. It isn't necessary for people to
agree on the "best" decision making process. They need only agree the
process is better.
For example, imagine that a surprise question is given to voters as
they leave the voting booth, like "Who was buried in Grant's Tomb?". By
eliminating or reducing the weight of the vote of those that get that
question wrong (the bottom three percent), the outcome of many close
elections would be changed. Most would agree this decision making
process is better than our current process--thus its outcome can be
used to test the outcomes of our current process. Logicracy provides
analysis tools and data gathering techniques that make a huge variety
of such decision-making processes possible, including the one described
here. Logicracy also makes it possible to eliminate all but a
negligible amount of fraud from the online data gathering process.

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only
exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse
from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always
votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public
treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose
fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of
the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years.
Great nations rise and fall. The people go from bondage to spiritual
truth, to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to
abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to
complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence,
from dependence back again to bondage.
