Politicians love tellings us what they’ll do, but what are the things that you wish they’d get off their a$$ and do something about?
Term limits for SCOTUS and Congress!
Ranked Choice Voting would help balance the parties out.
Tax the super rich. They’ve told us to do so, so why aren’t we just doing it?
Climate change. On our current course, the best case scenario is famine, war, and a really shitty world for billions of people. The worst case scenario is self-perpetuating cycles that wipe out our civilization and maybe humanity.
It’d be cool if those didn’t happen.
Just basic public education that is not indoctrination and infrastructure that promotes mobility without debt
public education that is not indoctrination
What jurisdiction are you in?
Their own ethics!
Single payer, ending the Palestinian genocide, election integrity, dissolving the DNC and GOP, the entire government firing themselves and not running for re-election.
Break up monopolies.
Healthcare.
Enforce fairness and ethical journalism.
Regulate social media. (Influencers, advertisements, disinformation.)
Billionaires. They need to be taxed to pay for their externalities, including healthcare and climate change, and poverty too. There’s no way to earn $1B from labor, it must be stolen from the labor of others.
Election fairness. Ranked choice voting, equal access, federal holiday to vote, overturn citizens united, eliminate electoral college, statehood for all citizens, redraw districts by geography, not demographics.
Bodily autonomy as a constitutional amendment. Covers abortion, assisted suicide, tattoos, drug use, plastic surgery, vasectomy, and any other voluntary medical procedures.
Investing in society. Education, healthcare, transportation, grid-scale clean energy storage, environmental health and remediation.
I like you. @[email protected] for President!
I am eligible. Maybe I’ll start a webpage for 2028. Though I doubt it’s possible without lots of money.
They need to outlaw EDDM advertising, cap the price of beer at $5 per 16 oz., and tax the rich like we did in “the golden age of America”, the 50’s, that being 91%.
Reforming laws to simply and condense them into Codes again, devolving the power to choose salaries of public workers back to departments, schools and hospitals, getting more hunting licenses to get rid of the excess wild boars we have
Corruption/Lobbying
The war in Palestine
The Supreme Court
Climate Change
Universal healthcare
Congressmen trying to overturn electionsWill update if anything else comes up
- Consumer Rights
- Worker’s Rights
- Universal Healthcare
- Copyright/Intellectual Property Issues
- Make the Internet a Utility
- Give the FTC some teeth i.e more authority so that they can have better chances to stop big acquisitions and monopolies from happening
Just a few of the things I’d like to see addressed here in the US:
- Universal healthcare
- Climate change
- Income inequality
- Reproductive rights
- Electoral reform (use popular vote for president, end gerrymandering)
- Restore fairness doctrine & regulate social media
- Stopping the rise of fascism and the far-right
- Restrict presidential power (no kings/dictators)
- SCOTUS reform (end lifetime terms)
Pass proportional representation without a referendum through multiparty support after receiving the result from the citizen’s assembly but nooo the establishment politician want referendums instead that are likely to fail while their buddies in corporate media fearmonger against necessary change and then too many people act like scared sheep and vote against their interests.
Every issue we face would improve if we had a proper representation in government.
Others have made long lists. But really, it boils down to just one thing.
We need stop growing for growths sake, at the expense of literally everything else.
We are screwing up the environment, science, technology, education, childhood, health, work, art, communication, transportation, and everything else, just so number can go up.
You know I would love to have many things before this but I don’t think we can get anything else meaniingfully done till we squash the current corporate situation. so number one is is not just to get rid of citizens united but enshrine in no uncertain terms in the constitution that rights are guaranteed for living people of the country and all other entities get rights as given by non constitutional law which can never supercede or even be considered on par with the tights of living people. That should followed with massive regulation and getting back to a decently progressive taxation system. That might allow us to then deal with our most pressing issues decently but without it our systems essentially rigged.
