The ultimate deciders are those who would implement any potential change whether we like it or not or think it's fair or not. At the same time having an organized vote with a window, rather than being poppycock, is necessary to ensure that voting is done in a fair manner and that people are allowed the time to get informed and formulate their opinions prior to having the pressure of rushed vote. What I'm seeing at this point is mob rule, and I for one don't think that a smart way of making decisions.
