Ameritocracy

Questions, ladies and gentlemen? Questions?

As you may have read in out community email or on the blog last week, one of the many cool features of Ameritocracy is our Questions feature.

Here’s a picture of The Riddler. Y’know…’cause he asked a lot of questions. Right?…
What? Fine, I’m tired today.

One of Ameritocracy’s main objectives is to help our community members understand complicated issues that often get dilluted into soundbites or otherwise oversimplified to the point of meaninglessness.  The Questions feature allows you (yes - YOU!…the person reading this right now; start feeling special) to ask the questions concerning subjects that you want to know more about.  This gives the community the chance to post quotes relating to that question, which ultimately provides new and illuminating dimensions to the question, helping you answer it yourself.

Or, for the nonboring and non-lots-of-words approach to explaining, here are a couple recent examples you can check out on your own:

Why are we hearing so much about voter fraud? Is it really a serious problem that could influence the election?
