Mars Ice Home Concept (NASA/Clouds image) |
on Mars, let alone an enduring one. In order to
ensure
long-term survival, a successful government must be
created.
Elon Musk is
hard at work on all these goals. He compares “an
early Martian community to a fledgling United
States in the late 18th century,” and envisions a government
“wherein laws would be short and the democratic
system would be immediate.”
What, no
electoral college? Does this mean that
the majority of
popular votes would actually decide an election? How positively quaint!
And what
does it mean that laws would be short? Musk doesn't exactly say. What he does say is that "long laws" are suspect. This hopefully implies that short laws are sweet.
