I have quite a few creative ideas, but am too tired to write them down rn. I’ll go the easy, lazy way (and write about more legislation ideas tomorrow):
Proportional representation like Germany. In every election, the voter votes for an individual and a party. The individual is chosen to represent the riding through STAR voting (my version). After all MPs are elected, to ensure proportional representation according to the party votes (the second vote that voters cast), individuals from party lists are put into parliament.
This way, we get riding representation and party representation.
You’re not wrong, and maybe I’m splitting hairs here… But I’m from Brazil and we while had very good results with Bolsa Família - really really good results, made history lifting millions of people out of poverty - we learned in practice that while the effects of inequality are most tragic among the poor, the real inequality happens between between the 99% and the 1%; and then again between the 1% and the 0.1%. While the wealth transfer has been successful, just like gas tax cuts the political capital generated is very feeble and easily coopted by following administrations.
I know that Bolsa Família it’s not the same as UBI, but it turns out that the political power unlocked lasted less than two decades. The elites will find ways to erode it eventually, if allowed to amass power to do so.
But anyway, yes I love your list, and would vote for anyone that got any permutation shuffle of this agenda.
