Hi!
Should we vote? Who we should vote for?
As you probably already now, I'm not so much into politics.
I do support freedom coupled with kindness and all these traits that are required in order for people to live harmonically in groups without starting killing and eating each other (because of the freedom they enjoy along the inherent predatory instincts), but I also know that human nature prohibits us to be good with each other at all times (due to personal ambition, jealousy or whatever) and I believe that almost any political system would be acceptable by anyone, if everyone was fair, had noble motives, lacked vanity and envy and was kind at heart.
Since this is implausible, I sort of think that the world must make the leap towards direct (pure) democracy, where everyone (who is willing to participate) will have a right to vote for every decision of the world-country-city-village-group (this is more than feasible today using the freakin' net).
So, a first step in order to convert the political system here in Greece could be to actively deny to vote for anyone. Someone could argue here that a good protest vote would be to vote something other than the mainstream; I accept and respect that.
When a feeble (due to lack of voter support) government takes power, we'll start protesting and demand a brutal capitalistic flavor of direct democracy.
Our will be done afterwards.
Ta ta,
