Imagine if you could dictate where every penny of your taxes are spent. I can't stop thinking about this concept.

If you wish you could have 100% going to welfare or 100% going to national security or a mixture of whatever.

Politicians would need to convince you where to send your taxes, with persuasion and hopefully honesty. They would be incentivised to educate the nation to the real issues and why the money needs to be spent there.

I can't help thinking this will fix a lot of issues.

An extra would be if taxes where paid with #bitcoin (not that I would ever part with my bitcoin) on an open ledger. You could verify it went to the correct places.

tbh, i have even more radical views. why do we need those leaches if those transactions could be realised without intermediaries at all 😤

I agree, I use the word Politician loosely. In this system the Politicians would be something entirely different
