    USA:

    • Prison slavery abolished

    • Elected judges with term limits

    • Ranked Choice Voting

    • Bodily autonomy as a right (no banning abortions, gender transitioning, bionics)

    • Separation of Church and State as the actual law of the land

    • Add federal referendums, all constitutional amendments are referendums (but amendments still require 75% of the population)

    • Districts are now no bigger than 50,000 people and they all get a representitive, and all the recognized Amerindian tribes also get their own reps (an agreement was made with the Cherokee for them to get one but it was never fulfilled)

    • 2nd Amendment replaced with something that directly allows federal government to regulate but not ban firearms.

      i wouldn’t go with ranked choice voting. all the systems i know of have their own flaws: IRV can have really weird results with more than three candidates, Borda count disproportionately favors the moderate, and the Condorcet method can completely fail to select a winner. instead, what about approval voting, where instead of ranking candidates, you just check as many boxes as you want?

        and the Condorcet method can completely fail to select a winner.

        That one’s not a flaw. All elections can suffer from ties. Pure Condorcet just makes it obvious when there’s a tie (and this is very rare). There are a bunch of Condorcet completion methods for resolving the tie.

      I wonder if the body autonomy thing would work against for you mandating vaccines
