Before you go all Marx on me, yes yes I know about utopian socialism vs scientific socialism, but its ok to have fun once in a while.
This is what my ideal leftist government looks like.
-
Unicameral legislature. No separate elections for executive. Ranked-choice voting.
-
Executive is formed from the directly elected legislators through voting among legislators.
-
1:10,000 elector-electee ratio at the state level and 1:100,000 at the federal level.
-
All state and federal reps can be recalled by an 80% no-confidence vote. This vote doesn't need to be initiated by the majority, you just go to your local govt office and submit a form of no-confidence, and once the threshold is reached, the elected rep is sacked.
-
No head of state, either at state level or federal level. This means no President, no Governors, no Speakers etc.
-
Anything in the constitution can be repealed, amended or added with simple 60% majority.
-
No more national-level courts. State-level judges are appointed only for 5 year terms. Judges have zero power to nullify laws.
-
The standing army is abolished and military duties are assigned to all adults.
I assumed this would be in a post-rich fuck environment, so there'd be ex-rich fucks but they're driving trucks and baking bread or whatever. Probably coping and seething but with little material capacity to do advertising.
Oh, I see, hell yeah
Well, that's what I thought anyway. I posted my thoughts above. idk, wishlisting is nice to think about sometimes, though I'm not really married to any of the opinions I wrote.
