not saying you are wrong but i just wanted to point out that a large stake holder already has a strong incentive not to make a bad decision. if he does it will lower the value of his stake.
Like today no one will vote for polititian, tomorrow he'll blame for everything bad?

Well, as I recall answer of BCNext, he thought about it as of distribution, nothing else, all risks on participants. Wanna change the world with your share? Do it, he "said". Wanna speculate and get rich? U can do it too. Freedom.

I agree with cheating possibility on any imaginable voting system. What do we need? Forum (Internet/real-life places) polls a good way to go IMO. Speaker've some time to prove his competence, can pin achievments to his words and all voters in their mind'll weigh his opinion/proposal. And with some rules (50%+1 consensus, 2/3, 75%... of any active memebers of community now, of at same time period, of all respected memebers included... and so on, and so on) decision'll be made with time.
