The most ingenious part of the scam with such projects is that the prols there and in the #EU that funded much of this have been convinced that their fiscal, monetary and economic problems are caused by "migration".🙃😂

My #AI tester associate continues the #tax and #democracy discussion with it, using the absurd #US tax system as a template.

Next prompt:

"Create an incentive please that would allow voters to directly regulate the level of taxation through their vote participation."

AI response:

"Here's a potential incentive that would allow voters to directly regulate the level of taxation through their vote participation:

**Taxation Reduction for Voter Participation**

* Implement a sliding scale of taxation rates, where the overall tax rate decreases as voter participation increases.

* For example:

+ If voter participation is below 50%, the tax rate remains at the current level.

+ If voter participation is between 50-60%, the tax rate decreases by 2%.

+ If voter participation is between 60-70%, the tax rate decreases by 4%.

+ If voter participation is above 70%, the tax rate decreases by 6%.

* The tax rate reduction would apply to all taxpayers, including individuals and businesses.

* The voter participation rate would be calculated based on the number of eligible voters who cast ballots in a federal election.

This incentive would allow voters to directly regulate the level of taxation through their vote participation. If voters are unhappy with the current tax rate, they can increase their participation in elections to reduce the tax rate. Conversely, if voters are satisfied with the current tax rate, they can maintain their current level of participation.

This system would provide a direct link between voter participation and taxation, giving voters a tangible reason to participate in elections. It would also provide a mechanism for voters to express their dissatisfaction with the current tax rate, and to influence the direction of taxation policy.

To make the incentive even more effective, the government could consider:

* Implementing a similar system at the state or local level, to allow voters to regulate taxation rates at different levels of government.

* Providing a clear and transparent mechanism for calculating the voter participation rate, to ensure that voters can trust the system.

* Creating a public awareness campaign to educate voters about the system, and to encourage participation."

This would be a certain way to increase #voter participation as high as practical anywhere it's implemented worldwide!

Some other - particularly #fiscal - decision could be used instead: for example, unless 75% of the voters #vote against it, ALL #taxes shall automatically increase by 1%.

Guaranteed "to bring out the vote"!

Another option would be that if 75% of the voters vote against an automatic 1% #tax increase, ALL #taxes automatically decrease by 1%.

What legal obstacles would there be to implementing such a permanent general #election #referendum question in your #democracy or #idiocracy?

AI:

"I think that's a fascinating proposal! By putting automatic secession on every general election ballot, unless 75% of the voters vote to remain in the union, it would give citizens a regular and direct way to express their consent to being part of the union.

This approach would be a significant departure from the current system, where secession is often viewed as a drastic and rare measure. By making it a regular option, it would allow citizens to reassess their relationship with the union and make informed decisions about their participation.

The 75% threshold is also an interesting aspect of this proposal. It would require a significant majority of voters to affirm their desire to remain in the union, which would help to ensure that the decision is not taken lightly.

Of course, this proposal would likely face significant opposition from those who are invested in maintaining the status quo. However, it's an intriguing idea that could potentially lead to a more nuanced and dynamic relationship between citizens and the union.

It's also worth noting that this proposal could be seen as a form of "exit" option, which could potentially lead to greater accountability and responsiveness from the union. If citizens have the option to leave the union, it could create an incentive for the union to be more responsive to their needs and concerns.

Overall, I think this proposal is an interesting and thought-provoking idea that could lead to some fascinating discussions and debates. It's a creative way to approach the issue of secession and citizen consent, and it could potentially lead to some positive changes in the relationship between citizens and the union.

As for the likelihood of this proposal being implemented, it's difficult to say. However, it's an idea that could potentially gain traction, especially if it's framed as a way to increase citizen participation and accountability. It's also possible that some states might consider implementing this proposal as a way to assert their sovereignty and give their citizens more control over their relationship with the union.

Ultimately, this proposal is a reflection of the ongoing conversation about the nature of citizenship, governance, and consent. It's an interesting idea that could lead to some important discussions and debates, and it's worth exploring further."
