Comments on: Why People Shouldn’t Vote: With Great Power comes Great Responsibility http://andybilhorn.wordpress.com/2008/10/29/why-people-shouldnt-vote-with-great-power-comes-great-responsibility/ The title of this website comes from the design motto of the great architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, who through his minimalist design principles focused on the building frame, creating a transparent exterior skin and eliminated interior walls to create vast, open spaces that would allow for the seamless integration of exterior settings with interior spaces. This blog is an attempt to do the same with my life.

I would feel so stupid if I were those poeple. I'm sure Tytler's thoughts only thought of independent systems and not interdependent systems. All the more scary if things get worse for us. I think we are in apathy to dependence right now... It will be interesting to see how people respond to the Marxist and Muslim comments in four years when Obama is up for re-election in four years.

Or are we already through dependence? The only thing that might be saving/prolonging this cycle is that right now there seems to be a reasonable amount of interdependence. We are dependent on a lot of countries for support, but they are using our excesses to grow. We will be in real trouble if the others become independent before we can reverse our course and become independent. So we are somewhere in the apathy to dependence?

Democracy IS better than any other form of government, but it's the one that requires an educated electorate. When so many people believe that <a href="http://www.conservapedia.org/" rel="nofollow">Obama is a Muslim and a Marxist</a>, you realize that maybe we have some kinks to work out in our own neighborhood...
