I 'll burst a rivet in my boiler if I hear just one more politician proclaiming a national state of stability and all the benefits that come from this deadly proposition.
Our world is not stable, it is a dynamic system that is constantly changing and the sooner we accept this fact and begin to live with the reality, the better we'll all be.
There said it.
d5 is a system that allows for the greater dynamics of decision making by encouraging a state of dynamic equilibrium. That is, a state that remains "stable" and consistent as long as the inputs or factors that created the state remain unchanged.
(When you vote on something it will make something happen. If it's for the better, every one's happier and we have stability. If not, it made things worse or changed nothing so we'll all have to do some more thinking and voting.)
The dynamic only works with respect, compassion, empathy, courage, freedom of information and the ability to bring about change.
In this system apathy is a choice and part of the dynamic. By not participating, being apathetic, the pool from which a majority may be taken becomes smaller and hence the influence of an organised minority becomes greater.
Eventually and unchecked this influence may well lead to problems for all those who ignored their democractic responsibilities. The beauty of d5 is the absolute guarantee that every issue is open to a vote so the consequences of being apethetic might be ugly, but at least it wouldn't be permanent.
Dynamic also describes a society that encourages all of it's citizens to communicate at every level. Where fear has been replaced by trust things of real beauty might grow. Crime, drug problems and mental health become issues of minor consequence not the monsters that ravage our streets today.
It's not too hard to imagine a rennaisance fuelled by an economy profiting from the contentment and inspiration of an engaged workforce.
Dynamic describes you, because in the end what you do, decides what you get.
