    government policy will be primarily set by a peer validated group of experts in their fields. funding will be dictated by a multidisciplinary team that assesses need through funding requests by the expert bodies with accompanying impact assessments. that will dictate taxes and so on.

    elections will be performative and meaningless as you lot have absolutely shown you can’t be trusted but also need to feel heard or you’ll break things you don’t understand.

      With the restriction that there should be no financial interest in the policy being passed for a committee member.

        good call. just well paid, expert professionals without a vested interest doing a job they are qualified to do, and being reviewed by people qualified to understand their performance.

      so similar to current, except for the ‘expert’ part

        currently governments fund and slash funding to all sorts of things according to political convenience… I just want to see all those decisions validated entirely on merit by someone who understands it.

        if it’s popular with the mob but it’s not true or doesn’t work, well, we don’t do it. president isn’t an expert and can’t say shit, and especially can’t do stupid things so he can sound tough in a media release. we can’t afford to keep dicking around with whatever sounds good to win popular support with the lowest common denominator while the world goes to shit.

        the world is far beyond the level of complexity where any one person could understand enough to make off the cuff, meaningful decisions about big issues. people need to stop thinking they can vote sensibly on policy or policy performance on almost any issue, let alone all the issues.
