  1. Re:Slashdot vs Impartiality by DanTheStone · · Score: 3, Insightful · on Appeals Court Caves To TSA Over Nude Body Scanners

    You might not know this, but we the Internet share many views. One is that the TSA scanner stuff is ineffective, a waste of money, and potentially dangerous.

    People are even worse at being informed, unbiased and keeping ideaology out of their decisions. At least elected representatives have to worry about staying in their constituents' favor or losing office.

    And that would only get worse if they had to act on every bill. Do you have any idea how many bills are introduced or voted on each year? You'd be heading to polls several times a week. Do you really think people are going to be that motivated, or able to stay that informed? You're going to get to a point where the only people who show up to vote are the ones who are radically for/against the bill.
