    Everybody gets to vote within 35 minutes or less, maybe I should rephrase that too on average in a voting area that people vote in 35 minutes or less. Make it unconstitutional stand in line for eight hours to vote just as an example.

    All voting areas are drawn and simple squares are rectangles and it is done via a mathematical algorithm.

    Abortion is a constitutional right, no limits, it is always between the person who is pregnant and their doctor.

    In the United States we called the fairness doctrine, I would put that into the constitution.

    A gross income tax if you are above a certain income you get taxed before you get to do any deductions or write off or anything. That same gross income tax would apply to trust funds it would also apply to businesses.

    Dark money in terms of politics would be bound by the constitution. Businesses would not be allowed to run ads or donate money. Money going to campaigns has to come from an individual and the maximum be US$5000 per year.

      The Constitution isn’t the appropriate place for legalizing abortion. This should be done in the next Déclaration des Droits de l’Homme et du Citoyen

      This one mystified me a bit. Why should we only get 35 minutes in which to vote? Then I realised you meant usually the queue was hours long in your country. Still seems pretty bizarre.

      We have compulsory voting here (rich people can afford the fine, but if you’re less rich like me, it isn’t worth it to not vote) and so everyone votes, pretty much, but the two weeks they give you to get a vote in at a before-the-cutoff seem pretty normal to me, and there’s always postal votes if you aren’t able to go in for two weeks and can’t afford the fine. Why not just open up the voting to a longer amount of time? Then you could go in after work one day to prevote in the two designated weeks like we do.
