there's no chance we turn things around without getting money out of politics, and this would go the furthest toward that in one move imo.

Heard JD Vance rightfully report on Rogan how housing costs are finally not rising anymore because we don't have a flood of illegal immigrants coming over and renting / buying (often times with government money). Our schools are flatlining (and like 70% of kids are on free lunch), etc.

I wonder if you get rid of birthright citizenship, don't let non-citizens vote, restrict government benefits, and then tax their income at 2x the normal rate (with a min of 30%) - if that doesn't solve a lot of the problems...

Jfc wtf is wrong with u risk-averse faggots. The actual, literal Congress--giving answers with their IRL names attached--would brainstorm bigger and more daring proposals than this.

Even if it's just a single year cleaning Hmong language branded cigarette butts out of national parks, providing shock labor for rectifying national disasters, and telling tourists not to get gored by buffalo it would restore the actual value of the vote and ensure that fickle magpie people aren't deciding crucial elections while cutting back on some of the dirt and grime of the electoral circus

Hardship, poverty etc waivers are a necessity and should not be onerously withheld or subject to political-partisan scrutiny but should require perhaps some face to face interviewing and forms to fill out as well as a "thoughtful and sincere essay required" portion as to explain to the proctor of the state as to why the franchise is being pursued. This portion would be judged very lightly and the main thing to judge within would just be 1. sincere effort and 2. some basis of clear thinking regarding the topic from the interviewed. "I am seeking this to engage in political life" ✅ "I want to give back my time to the nation writ large and its government" ✅ "I am disappointed with the current quality of government and wish to express this and enact major---even radical, including the repeal of this proposed amendment--- change via the vote" ✅ without question or exceptional scrutiny "My neighbor/uncle/son votes Dempublican and I want to vote Republicrat to balance it out (i.e. spite them.") ❌ "I am seeking the preferential treatment that this status will get for me in the job market" ❌ with an attendant investigation launched into the complaints of the essay author and more over

There must be a time/effort cost associated with the prospect. Slots open up as jobs open up and you are considered to have the franchise so long as you're locked into the queue. Very possible to be in the queue and never be called for civil service as well; the franchise is granted so long as the attempt has been made. The private sector should be expected to do their civic duty and make transitioning in and out of life prior simple and painless (scaled exceptions for smaller businesses, of course) and this is a non-negotiable necessity that will weed out who does business in America because they care about the land and its people vs those who do it just to make a quick buck. Costs can be defrayed in part by private-public sponsorships with major firms and some classy, optimistic EPCOT style advertising/branding can be allowed for to provide some extra PR value. Not sure about monetary reimbursement during the period of being held at the convenience of the US government but budgets can be appropriated in portion from departments using this labor pool and it could perhaps defray general costs and lower the overall inefficiency of the state by departments being able to fill out costly permanent employee slots and all the heavy budget drain that it entails for untrained/semi-skilled positions with this labor pool

Shouldn't be any moral value attached to this process by the propaganda arms of the state btw nor should non-voters be treated as a lesser breed of people. Explicit private sector discrimination on this basis would be strictly disallowed. Just a simple risks-benefits analysis made publicly available and let people decide for themselves. Having the franchise will not be necessary to run as a congressman, perhaps make it a necessity for the senate, perhaps not. Lower/upper house distinction needs to be requantified and senate prestige needs to be restored after decades of scoundrels.

Incidentally this would also do much to restore the country's image amongst the youth and help people who'd never get a chance otherwise to spend a year potentially seeing just exactly how beautiful, spiritually rich, and truly culturally diverse the natural land of this country actually is. "America as filtered through FOX news or CNN" is a very different concept from "America, the land, the people, the nation-as-it-exists". The former I curse daily but the latter will never leave me no matter where I am

There are many, many unenumerated benefits to this sort of policy, left unspoken, and I think it being a primarily civil service role will mollify all but the most hardcore of the anarchists on a portion of the left as most who think with a state model will probably see more benefit than malus in the concept of the vote as a reward for, as best as you can, providing directly to the general welfare or civic buy-in for the right to participate in the electoral process. I think sometimes that perhaps this was an end goal that JFK and his type had in mind for institutions like the peace corps. No pro-America propaganda needed for this to work. Just show the people what the country really is on the ground and the land, the fields, the parks, dams, great infrastructure installations, speedy and comprehensive public response to natural disasters, ambitions, efforts, etc of the nation look like and let them aid and improve a bit of any of these things and they'll be convinced

There are probably all sorts of errors with the implementation but the fundamental idea that gaining the franchise should incur some kind of personal investment is probably a sound one. It's an intrinsically "political" program but otherwise shouldn't be trammeled by state propaganda beyond the minimal required for public awareness

The current model has much pro and con as well but the fatigue people are feeling atm about the blind, universal franchise is real and probably needs to be addressed one way or another or at the very least some national conversation needs to be had on the topic. Current voters probably grandfathered in but this is up for debate

1. Completely undo the regulatory state by disallowing delegation of authority to other branches

2. All votes must be public with names attached

3. No omnibus bills: one subject per bill with no unrelated or indirect subjects allowed to be amended in

4. Only natural born citizens or those who have naturalized and been citizens for at least 25 years

5. Prescribed pre-election activities and method for putting your platform out there--no option to do political ads or go outside of the set pre election activities (this entirely removes funding and advertising as we know it)

6. Ban on all foreign lobbying and involvement

7. Mandatory public audit of communications and finances (including spouse), with spousal consent required for someone to be elected.

8. Criminalize making and breaking campaign promises

9. Much clearer and stronger language that Congress had no authority beyond the subjects granted to them

10. Congress cannot exempt itself or give itself any special treatment with respect to laws it passes

11. Automatic aggravated status for any financial, corruption, or job-related crimes committed

12. Super majority vote required to confirm presidential pardon of members of its own administration and their family members

13. No military action absent attack on American sole or territories or protectorates without express congressional approval

14. Mandatory medication disclosures with drug testing

15. Term limits

16. Age limits

17. Annual cognitive testing with public results

18. Body cams with full public archive of audio and video for all job related activities and meetings (save only clarified briefings, with definition of very limited allowance for clarified briefings)

19. Legislation written by outsiders must be captioned with who wrote it and on whose behalf, with tests/tracing back to funding sources and whether or not there is any relation (interest or familial or forget workplace etc) to members of Congress voting on the bill

20. Restrictions on what public funding at the federal level can be used for

21. Public approval needed to do more than a certain amount of deficit spending or pushing more than a certain amount of spending to certain things (1.5 trillion for the military would definitely trigger this): also inability to reallocate appropriated money for other uses. I prefer a system of earmarks for all spending so it's clear where and how it is to be spent and can be tracked to verify
