Every politician promises to listen to his/her constituency, only to rely upon weighing the public’s sentiment by the volume of mail received on a given issue. The problem is, not many people engage in letter writing anymore, given more towards sending emails or voting in online polls. While some politicians have latched onto the new media wave many more choose to do things the way they’ve always been done, afraid to rock the boat. Proposed: All functions in every Senator’s, Representative’s, Governor’s and State Legislator’s offices be required to provide easily accessible online equivalents for all interaction with the public. It’s time to bring our government into the 21st century.
