VOTO QUADRATO

La democrazia conta i voti senza pesarli, in che modo colmare questa evidente lacuna?
Per esempio, facendo pagare il diritto di accedere ai seggi. Tali diritti saranno comprati e venduti in una “camera di compensazione”. La vendita riguarderà solo il proprio voto. L’acquisto sarà libero (col solo vincolo della transazione unica) ad un prezzo destinato a salire in modo esponenziale.
Il prezzo esponenziale scongiura l’accaparramento e la negoziabilità consente alle minoranze con preferenze intense di far fuori le maggioranze con preferenze superficiali.
Pensate solo alla minoranza gay che si batte per una legge sul matrimonio omosessuale. O alla minoranza cattolica che si batte per ampliare il diritto all’ obiezione di coscienza.

Consider a firm that wants to learn whether customers care about particular product attributes: colour, quality, price, and so on. Rather than simply ask people what they care about — which leads to notoriously inaccurate results, often where people affect strong views just to maximise their individual influence — a business, or a public service, could supply customers with budgets of credits which they then used to vote, in quadratic fashion, for the attributes they want. This forces the group of respondents, like the swarm of bees, to allocate more resources to the options they care most about.


The authors give gay marriage as an example where a minority group with more intense preferences
