TPP leak: states give companies the right to repeal nations' laws
I saw a TED Talk [0] a while back about how Git could transform the legislative process and help bring transparency to how our laws are formed.<p>I've known about the TPP for a while. I tried to discuss it with people and no one had even heard of it.<p>What if we had a Github-esque site where all of our legislation (and all revisions) are readily available with annotations. Would society be more interested in participating in the creation of our laws? I know I would be.<p>[0] <a href="http://www.ted.com/talks/clay_shirky_how_the_internet_will_one_day_transform_government?language=en" rel="nofollow">http://www.ted.com/talks/clay_shirky_how_the_internet_will_o...</a>
