Comment works in a Vote Trading System (Score 1) 857
I think people *should* have the right to give up their vote. More to the point, I think people should be able to sign their vote over to a specialist on matters pertaining to that particular subject. I might not be interested in the healthcare system for whatever reason, but I might know somebody who I trust to whom I could hand my vote on matters regarding healthcare. I'd also have the option of allowing that person of passing my vote on to somebody he/she trusted, so that votes can be pooled and develop a sort of collective bargaining power.
