Hi Evan,
I'm sorry - but I come from the 'British School' of politics, where any idea gets to be discussed in public first, with views heard from both sides, and only then- after the people with voting rights heard varying views and have established their beliefs and views on the matter - ONLY THEN they vote.
With no disrespect (and this has nothing to do with my economic thought), I think community members should write here what they think, have others read, digest and form an opinion first. After several pages of views, we can proceed to vote.
My 2 cents.
Brits... Suggesting the very idea that stands in front of you... ;-)
I think he posted it here for that very reason... Duh.
I think if discussion had taken place beforehand there might be more than two options available. If you don't agree with either of the available options, what can you vote for?
