vcczar Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 I'm curious what kind of idealistic legislation we can come up with as hypothetical legislation. Basically, I want you to think of laws that you wish existed, but has never been proposed. For instance, if you think "the stock market is evil and creates inequality in wealth, " you might think, "What if the stockmarket were abolished?" Therefore, a bill you might suggest would be "Abolish the Stock Market" or "Make Stock Trading Illegal." So think about what laws you wish existed and wish were acceptable or allowable in a "perfect world." p.s. the stock market ideas is not really my own opinion, although I sympathize with the idea of it.

OrangeP47 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 (edited) I'll have more later, but considering New Zealand just did (a form) of this, this might actually be one of the more plausible ones: Ban Smoking. Edit: Note, not a public smoking ban, a ban on smoking, entirely. Edited December 14, 2022 by OrangeP47 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EYates Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Maybe something a bit wack like being able to see states to sort out fiscal problems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That really depends on what you mean, that's a really vague statement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say you get maxed out on how much you can spend, in exchange for some more spending as a one off next turn you can sell a state? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrangeP47 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Don't know if this topic is still getting attention, but an idea I had for those of us that are infrastructure nerds: Audit and Trim Excess Interstate Highway Routes I say this as someone who absolutely loves the interstate highway system, despite the environment impact meaning other forms of transit are objectively better: There are a lot of useless vestigial routes and projects that basically linger on forever as the remnant of some grand design that are never going to get trimmed because it'd be 95% political suicide to actually take such funding away even if the project is indefinitely on hold. But what if someone manged to ram cancelations through in the other 5% of their political career? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
