Should we keep the theme?

Would have preferred to run this later, when all the theme options had been explored. But since the theme is in a political platform, I figured I'd start it now.

The choices are now:

• LazCorp/No Change
• No Theme

This straw poll will run for eight days.

LazCorp/No Change.

I feel like this discussion has been a little unsatisfying because not many people have participated in these discussions. At this point, I'm not really sure what the "will of the people" is.

I've made my case that I think LazCorp is a more harmful theme than most others — or having no theme at all. I don't get the sense that my arguments have really moved anyone.

What I would say is that if we change themes, it should be coordinated with some other major change or "reset" our region. @Debussy made some great points in JL's campaign thread that we are kinda treading water without addressing the core issues that impact our regional health. While I like some of the pieces of JL's platform, I agree with this point broadly. Any theme change isn't going to make a real difference without other adjustments under the good IMO.
