Proposal/Issue/Article
Workweek length : The workweek will be adjusted to ensure full
employment while eliminating unemployment, under-employment and mis-employment.
Either we share job time or jobless crime. Anyone working beyond the
optimal workweek length is not working for themselves but for those who are
not working in whole or part. Let us have 24in4: By better employing our
human potential we can have a 24-hour workweek in 4 years with more funds
and fun for self, family and community in a safer, saner world. (The
Super
Brainbee has a function to determine the optimal, ideal workweek length).
[Please note: As the US has devolved into a "Servant" economy with a worsening
of the "have's" and the "have not's," claims of a vibrant economy with low
unemployment rates makes the slave-owner laugh as he says, "I have zero
unemployment on my plantation."]
Legislative reform:
Term limits --Habitual politicians prove the
Peter
Principle , that incumbents rise to the level of their incompetence and
stay there. We need new faces with new ideas for old problems. In times of
worsening habitual problems, the only thing worse than not voting is voting
for a habitual politicians. In times of worsening habitual problems the only
thing worse than not voting is voting for a habitual politician. Term limits
terminate habitual problems.
Primaries will be based on using brainbees with federal elections
beginning July 4 and state/local elections on Labor
Day--zero-cost .
Staggered Election : As US Senate elections are staggered every two
years, the staggered principle will be applied to a monthly allotment of
Senators and
Representatives--webpage .
Citizen Legislation will be initiated on a monthly basis using brainbees
at the national, state and local
level--webpage .
Women 50/50 : Each position will be have a senior and junior member
with the junior member being the chief of staff with voting
rights--webpage .
Legislative colleges will be established for part-time legislators
who live at home with regular jobs and who vote via the internet with Washington
DC becoming a historic landmark of past democracy.
All Presidential nominations will be voted upon by 30 days with Senators
being relieved of office based on seniority at the rate of one dismissed
Senator for each day beyond 30 days.
Campaign season limitations: Primary Brainbees (July 4>Labor Day) ...
Get the Dirt Brainbees(September) ... Weekly Debates (October) ... No
outside money ... campaigns donations limitations to be determined.
Presidium:
The Presidency will consist of five positions with an annual, no advertising
brainbee to select the bottom rung who progresses upward in annual steps.
(Example, 2016
DreamTeam )
President, Head Of State, (Hail to the Chief), White House occupant
Prime President, Head of government
Vice-President(Chief of staff),
Premier(Spokes Person),
Vice-Premier(Gofer). Annual election
Women 50/50: Each election will be limited to one sex in a toggle
fashion--webpage .
Pardons/Ostracism, monthly list to president. Presidential
pardons will
be terminated based on having been
abused--ostracism .
Pension
reform : Any outside income beyond the federal pension by a former
president will be applied to the cost of secret service protection. Any income
beyond the cost will be split between the ex-president and the Social Security
fund. This income includes any donation to a presidential library.
Presidential Library: Taxpayers will not provide any funding for presidential
libraries. The track record of Presidents after Roosevelt has been a downward
trend in America's position on the world stage. Why are over-taxed voters
funding these modern day pyramids--Obama's Chicago monster is to cost
$500,000,000 to build with annual operating costs in the millions. Would
it not be better to funnel this money to the Chicago police and social services
to combat historical crime?
No presidentail death parades will be allowed including resting in any public
building. This reflects their failure to maintain U.S. world status.
Supreme Court :
Nine-year tenure, one elected each year per a region. Region serves as primary
with other regions voting.
No one from a college/university of a sitting justice can be a candidate.
(Harvard and Yale do not represent humanity.)
Tax Sharing Reform Allocation:
Profit-sharing Tax : 50% stays at each level as the funds
progress upward. We cannot respond to our ability if habitual
politicians keep taking responsibility , that is, our ability to
respond to our problems.
Level
Rights : The duty to solve problems will be assigned to the level best
able to respond, that is, the level of origin, so as to make things right
in the most economic, efficient and effective
way--Rationale . To wit, the best government is the best government
... if we better self-govern
Tax Collection Reform: Reform Collection: Taxes will be collected
real time from several sources.
Product Transaction Tax : Universal flat tax on all goods
and services.
Igknowance
Tax : Tax igknowance to stop igknowance from taxing us forever as igknowed
time-wasting, money-draining problems.
Flooded cars
Scam Co-Enablers
Emergency rescues
Distraction Tax: Tax activities that distract us from defining and solving
our problems.
Community service for
Healthcare
costs
Real-Time, automatic: Save 6% of economy or 144 minutes (2.2 lifehours).
By "re-timing" tax collection, we could reduce the workweek by 2.2 hours
with the same tax revenues. This is part of
Profit-sharing Taxation and
Level
Rights .
