A web of Government


It breaks down all of the departments of government. Each name represents a different “office” of social organization. Right now, these offices are stricken with bureaucracy and paperwork and all of those things that people in my generation loathe. My thing, the thing I think about every day, is how to use the tools of the Internet to make these offices completely open and efficient. I don’t think political positions will ever be obsolete, but we can make the system so open and democratic, only the most honest, competent, hard-working people will be elected.

If Obama wins, he’ll probably accelerate the rate at which the government adapts to an Internet doctrine. If he doesn’t, any resistance to change from the other candidates will give people like me even more incentive to change the way the system works. Give us ten years and there won’t be such thing as a smear campaign.
