[Serious] The revolution was successful! The old government is gone. You get to help write the new Constitution. What do you put into it?

You're viewing a single thread.
Competency tests before you can appear on a ballot, with a commission that reviews the requirements to prevent the exclusion of minorities.
All financial information must be disclosed by anyone with power over others.
Somehow replace shares with cooperatives and employee ownership.
No elected judges, with stringent training and yearly bias testing. Like a postdoc in judicial impartiality.
Same with sheriffs. No elected police. Police should be a career, like a civil engineer. To be promoted, people must pass ever more strict ethics courses.
Any person who is a position of trust and power who then acts contrary to the ethics of their role can never be elected. Or have power over anyone again.
Children must be free of religion until they are 25.
Children must not be mutilated by their parents religion.
National healthcare.
USA focused: each state gets one senator, plus one per 2 million residents.
Most of what you've described would inevitably lead to the establishment of a single party totalitarian state.

Don't like the opposing party? Just make it part of the test. Today, one party could exclude the other by including questions that agree or disagree with critical race theory, voter fraud, etc.

Same issue. Who determines impartiality? The party in power? Single party state.

Who determines "ethics"? Single party state.

What is religion? You're definitely banning several books, and possibly banning a lot more. Many books can be turned into a religion or contain religious aspects. The party in power decides what's a religion and what gets banned.

At that point, why have a separate Senate and House? The point of a two-chambered Congress is to balance state and federal power.
Those "competency" tests will be used to discriminate.
