Public choice is the branch of economics which looks at (mostly democratic) government systems using economic logic ie: the ideas of rationality, utility maximization, and game theory etc.
As a student of economics, this seems like a great way to classify questions. Some questions I think might benefit from such a tag:
Is there any reason to vote against the predominant majority?
Strategy to *not* vote for a candidate using Single Transferable Vote
Why can't voting be fair if there are more than two alternatives?
or even:
What factors influence the number of political parties?
I'm definitely new to this community, and I don't want to rock the boat. Is public-choice a reasonable tag to add? Is retroactive tagging acceptable?
