Quorum takes 10 people. I really don't consider that a small group.

I personally think that voting creates a tyranny of the majority which inherently oppresses minority groups. In a democracy, minorities have to hope for the benevolence of the majority to deign to stoop down low enough to recognize them as people.

I would be wary, sudo, of how few people it already takes to have quorum, and if that changes...
A small clique of friends can be at a meeting, and make decisions for all of sudo. 
It's a broken system. 

Our leaders can either say 
"there's the power, don't give it to anyone, let's split it consciously"
 or
 "where's the power? i don't see it" 
the latter is falsity in my opinion, it deters you from taking any
the former is truth. 


I think 1-vote-per-member; remotely solicited when live-vote isn't possible, is a much sounder way of representing the opinions and needs of many people. 

to my eyes, consensus seems to be closer to high school social dynamics than a step in political evolution. i'm definitely disillusioned about consensus after seeing this project.
