General Discussion

Amerikkka should not exist. It must be abolished. There are concessions the State & capital will adhere to when we mobilize, but revolution will never be on the ballot.

Domination is a byproduct of coercive hierarchy. To free ourselves from domination we have to be strategic in how we interact with systems of power. Non-reformist reforms can improve our material conditions in the short term, but true liberation is only achieved when we abolish all States, abolish Capitalism and abolish hierarchy.

We don't have to bargain for our humanity. We have the capacity to collectively organize and care for ourselves and the environment.

Maybe abolish slavery? Perhaps actually honor treaties with indigenous people?

One thing I’ve been mulling over is “tax stock dividends at source.” So if a company is paying out dividends to stockholders, there’s no hiding it, the tax to the IRS is paid up front.

IRS filing taxes for us could lead to unintended consequences, like them just saying "yep, everything's in order here. you're all paid up. What's that? Tax return? No, you paid the exact amount you owed in taxes, so you get no return." and probably you'd have to do a FOIA request to get a copy of the return, then you could probably fight it, but it'd cost more to fight it than you'd get back in the return in the first place.

I like where you're going here, and the only things I disagree with are the Senate merge and Electoral College as these still serve a purpose. The removal of the House cap will rebalance there, and if anything the Senate could be reverted from popular election back to being appointed by the State Legislatures so they rebalance back to being actual actors for the State as intended vs overpowered Representatives.

The Electoral College helps balance democracy being 2 wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner, but maybe get some math experts to review the equation for apportionment and/or set all electors to be proportional to the vote percentages in every state.

mandatory voting is dumb

What's wrong with filibuster?

There's the gerrymandering thing though. When done in good faith it can give a voice to minorities. When done in bad faith... well, you've seen what happens. Point is it's a double edged sword.

Remove daylight standard time.

Remove "drive in empty lane" language from DMV instruction.

These two things would have near universal impact on US culture.

I would love most of these to be implemented. But I wouldn't want the Senate to be merged because of separation of powers. Better to have a mandatory retirement age or term length for all politicians.

Also, I would like every law that has been and will be enacted by the Senate, that only affects the Senate and other positions of power, to be voted by the people in a popular vote. This way corruption by conflict of interest wouldn't happen so blatantly like it has in the past.

Abolishing corporate ownership is stupid. What does that even achieve?

If you trying to fix the housing market this is completely the wrong way to go about it. The issue is the value of the land isn't correctly valued. Things like LVT, density minimums (increasing with population growth), good rail links again with dense redevelopment near the stations.

Things like this will fix the housing market.

Unless you worried about landlords being dicks you just need better laws. Like what are you actually trying to achieve? I don't get it.

Prostitution will just objectify women
