The ruling elite in RCC and RA do not want democracy. Lila Gordon don't want to put batteries in the boom boxes. don't matter if she looks stupid by insisting power cords are safe. I guarantee you if we could vote: do you want batteries or power cords by the pool 99% of people would vote for batteries.

She don't want suggestion boxes because she says of the environmental impact. There is no environmental impact from suggestion boxes. She don't want no suggestions.

She don't want people to use the shop. It's only open one day and one evening and let me tell you it's full up then. A lot of the rest of the time she's given it to some thespian group. Thespians belong in the theater not in the shop. Most of the time it's just closed. The original plan was to have a wood shop that people could use.

They used to have community pancake breakfasts but not no more.

Lila Gordon meet in secret sessions with the RA when they came up with this plan to build a massive rec center with 500 cars. That place would of been like RCC with no democracy.

The RA don't want no democracy either. They have their email list and they can send out whatever they like for what ever reason they want any time they want and they like it that way. They don't have to answer to no one just like they did in Snow gate.

I went to see them when they advertised for their communication committee. They told me no we can't have no two way communication because there is no mandate. Well then they then went out and started that magazine, which gives them still more power.

Power is infectious with hierarchies, democracy is not.

Vote for whoever you want to vote for. I can't say that I care whether I personally am elected but I do care if I live in a Democracy or not.
I care that people have to swim with live power cords dangling near the swimming pools or can use the wood shop without crowding like the originators of RCC intended.
