Wiki Per Procurationem

Did you ever think the politicians who create the laws were a bunch of idiots misguided public servants and that a monkey novice could do better? Well, now comes something called wikocracy. What they do is place selected legal documents in a wiki and then invite people to modify the law, in any way you choose. You can make it better, or worse. You can delete whole sections or add new ones. You can totally change the aim of the law at a whim or propose you own new law.

Of course, as with many wikis, what you do can be undone by the next person. But, I guess, the hope is the collective work of many hands will, over time, improve the law and make it a model that politicians can use. Or it can be a complete waste of time. YMMV. Insert disclaimer here.

Aloha!
