I love how Clay thinks society should implement git-like concepts into how we interact. Could it actually work?

I think that it stands a better chance to get started on a local level. Not just with Git, can you imagine a MINT style presentation of city or township budgets? Only a handful of people provide input on budgets because of the difficulty of getting their minds around it. People complain how the money is spent or not spent after the fact. Radical transparency is the key.
