• Have a hard wealth cap of some arbitrary number, like $10-50 million, enough to comfortably retire on and live a life of luxury, but not enough to buy political power.
• Give workers ownership over the corporations they work for in the form of worker cooperatives (not just an ESOP, but true ownership and governance). This includes trade partners following the same standard if they would like to continue to trade with us (speaking from a US perspective here). The US was able to strong-arm the rest of the world into following their economic model before with the Marshal Plan, and they can do it again.
• Provide a livable UBI tied to inflation along with providing all necessities free of charge, including housing, healthcare, utilities, etc. This will encourage entrepeneurship and artistic creation without the fear of not being able to survive.
• Transition from a representative democracy to a more direct form of democracies. This would effectively eliminate Congress in favor of the people directly writing and voting on laws at all scales of government, from cities and counties all the way to federally. Constitutional amendments can be passed with an 80% popular vote.
• Ban all advertising, especially political adverts.
• Publicize industries that are essential, such as schooling, prisons, food production, power production, healthcare, etc. Ensure that all public workers are paid well.
• Overturn Marbury v Madison (in the US), which currently allows the Supreme Court to effectively enact laws.
• The president should be limited to exclusively make decisions about defensive responses to war, defining defense as a response to a direct attack on native soil. All other decisions pertaining to war are left to the people as a collective, including the power to cancel out a president’s decision.
• The power to vote out any representative of government at any time, should they not comply with the peoples’ demands.

Giving any one person or small group of people the power to rule over a large group of individuals is the source of corruption, whether that power comes politically, financially, materially (one person having unreasonably more resources than another), idiologically (in the form of religious leaders, for example).

If you want to look deeper into this style of governance and need a name for it, check out anarchist idiology, though I consider myself to more “lean” anarchist than anything else. My list of policies are nowhere near perfect or complete, and are just my own, badly organized, America-centric ideas for how a country should be run. For example, I didn’t even touch on policing, and police absolutely have great power over a populace. I think the nordic model of policing and prison is a good compromise between abolishing the police force entirely and the current system in the US.
